> Margarine has always been pretty popular
Has it? There are people who use it for ethical or cost saving reasons, but I've never seen anyone say that they actually prefer the taste over butter.

I’m not sure exactly when that “turned back around”, but I think it was the 2010’s - now butter is the default and margarine is seen as rubbish.
Should have probably invented a new product name for it though, but modern margarine uses different processes than partial hydrogenation.
I have seen some margarines sold as vegan butter.
