Well, at least for now. Yes to both questions, according to a recent national survey conducted by Yankelovich Partners and released by Cornell's National Nutrition Information Center.

For instance, consumers are not generally aware that margarine is still the preferred alternative to butter for heart-health reasons and that lean red meat is perfectly appropriate in the diet.
