My Dad (born in 1909) talked about the first " oleo " . I think it was some type of vegtable shortning. He talked about the coloring that had to be mixed into the white fat. He also said it tasted awfull. So when the family cow was dry and no homeade butter available he prefered bacon grease or good homemade lard on bread.
