WHAT IS
OLEOMARGARINE
"From a chemical standpoint
there is as great a difference
between butter and oleomar
garine as there is between day
and night.
"It takes 25 pounds of oleo
margarine to give you as much
nutritive value as does 1 pound
of butter made from cow's
milk.
"Butter made from cow's
milk contains certain substan
ces called vitamins, the most
important being vitamin. A,
which makes it superior in
the human diet. Oleomargar
ine contains no vitamin A."
