The history of margarine is real weird and dumb yeah quote:The color bans, drafted by the butter lobby, began in the dairy states of New York and New Jersey. In several states, legislatures enacted laws to require margarine manufacturers to add pink colorings to make the product look unpalatable, despite the objections of the oleo manufacturers that butter dairies themselves added annatto to their product to imitate the yellow of mid-summer butter.

Len posted:BUT MARGARINE IS ONE MOLECULE AWAY FROM PLASTIC quote:Around the 1930s and 1940s, Arthur Imhausen developed and implemented an industrial process in Germany for producing edible fats by oxidizing synthetic paraffin wax made from coal.[18] The products were fractionally distilled and the edible fats were obtained from the C9-C16 fraction[19] which were reacted with glycerol such as that synthesized from propylene.[20] Margarine made from them was found to be nutritious and of agreeable taste, and it was incorporated into diets contributing as much as 700 calories per day.[21][22] The process required at least 60 kg of coal per kg of synthetic butter.[20] That industrial process was discontinued after WWII due to its inefficiency. Delicious coal butter, thanks nazi germany!

I assume "the 'high-price' spread" is meant to imply butter without actually saying it so that technically none of their comparisons can be proven false?

I'm 9 years late on this, but this is the first time I saw this incredible op-ed. https://hbr.org/2011/09/steve-jobs-worlds-greatest-phi.html I kept waiting for it to pivot to satire, but it never did. Dan Pallotta, Journeyman Bootlicker posted:Last year Change.org wrote of Steve Jobs, “It’s high time the minimalist CEO became a magnanimous philanthropist.” Also Dan Pallotta, May His Parents Spit on His Grave posted:What a loss to humanity it would have been if Jobs had dedicated the last 25 years of his life to figuring out how to give his billions away, instead of doing what he does best.

less than three posted:It's not Margarine any more, it's "Plant Butter" I find margarine brands like "I can't believe it's not butter!" way more offensive. Most of them have "butter" in huge letters on them, making it easy to accidentally purchase margarine. Lambert has issued a correction as of 08:46 on May 3, 2020 |

Doesn't margarine come in tubs while butter comes in bricks so it's not an issue I've never seen butter sold in a tub and vice versa

steinrokkan posted:Doesn't margarine come in tubs while butter comes in bricks so it's not an issue I've seen both in both formats, but maybe that's different in the US. The "brick"-margarine is specifically marketed as butter for vegans, from what I've seen.

Brick margarine has been in the US markets forever it’s all my parents ever bought as a kid And vegan butters are typically more complicated than most margarines

I miss being able to text without looking at the screen if all I'm doing is replying with a simple response. Not that I ever did it, but I bet it's made texting and driving even more dangerous since you gotta look at your phone to type. Swipey text has made me so lazy and autocorrect choosing the wrong words so often is probably making me look like a lunatic to the people I text.
