Margarine, and other curiosities – Page 2 – Chat Forum

I heard the word 'margarine' this morning, and realised that, while I grew up with it, I haven't thought about it for more than 20 years. Once we realised that butter was better and (probably) healthier than margarine, we never bought it again. Consequently, I guess I egocentrically assumed that everyone had done the same thing, and that no one used it anymore - even that it hardly existed anymore. So is margarine still a 'thing', or has it been consigned to a small minority section in the supermarket? And while we're at it, what other things are out there that you possibly assumed had been consigned to history because they fell off your radar, but that you discovered are still in circulation?

Nope the odds against it reaching earth are not good.

Hungry weans.

Thousands of them. 😉

By all accounts the type of bread used or the fillings contained therein are immaterial to the outcome of the calculation.
