Did you know it was once illegal to dye margarine to resemble butter? To get around this, they sold margarine with separate dye packs for a more appealing look!

This vintage 1947 advertisement for Delrich margarine features a woman kneading a plastic bag to color the product, with four illustrated steps showing how to use the 'E-Z Color Pak'. The text explains that no mixing bowl is needed, the bag is kneaded until colored, then reshaped and chilled, and finally sliced for serving. The ad emphasizes the ease of use and the product's deliciousness, with the tagline 'Just Knead the Bag!' and 'So Easy a Child Can Do It!'
