Excerpt: ...Annual per capita consumption of added fats and oils declined at least 7 percent between 1993 and 1997, from a record-high 70 pounds per person to 66 pounds (fatcontent basis). This 7-percent decline reflects the following declines in per capita use (product-weight basis): 1 lpercent for butter, 23 percent for margarine and spreads, 17 percent for shortening, and 35 percent for specialty fats used mainly in confectionery products and nondairy creamers.
