Fun Fact: Margarine was first made in the U.S. in 1873. So that it would not be confused with butter, it was not allowed to be colored yellow. Thirty-two states and 80% of the U.S. population lived under margarine color bans. While the Supreme Court upheld such bans, it did strike down forced coloration (pink) which had begun in an effort to get around the ban on yellow coloring. During this period, coloring in the home began, with purveyors providing capsules of food coloring to be kneaded into the margarine. This practice continued through World War II. It was not until 1996 that a legislative bill signaled an end to the last piece of legislation that adversely affected the sale of margarine.
