Who Still Buys Margarine?

Butter vs Margarine? I'm sticking with butter.
When I see margarine in the supermarket, I scratch my head and wonder... who still buys margarine? To me, there's no comparison. Butter's been around for thousands of years and it has just one or two simple ingredients, cows milk and salt.
Margarine is mystery oil, turned into a thick goop by scientists using a heat and all sorts of ingredients, which often turn it into an unhealthful mess that still can't compare with the taste of butter. It was created in a lab as a "Healthful Alternative" to butter, but many of them, especially stick margarine still contain trans fats.
While there are newer blends that have fewer trans fats by mixing them with butter, pure margarine is still mystery goop to me.
There are people who debate both sides of the health argument. For every study that claims margarine is better for your health, there's an equal number who claim butter is safer. The bottom line is this... while the doctors debate the health benefits of each, there's no debate about the taste. Butter tastes better.
