This 2016 episode delves into how industries and governments had a really weird preoccupation with protecting people from margarine way before it was made with the hydrogenated oils that led to its unhealthy reputation in more recent years. There’s even bootlegging involved.

I don’t remember if I had previously heard this podcast but it’s a fascinating listen.
