[Editor’s note: Earlier in oleo history, it came as a cream colored solid with a yellow coloring tablet and it was squeezed and massaged until the mixture was butter colored. Oleo was a margarine (oleomargarine) product in the distant past originally created for Emperor Napoleon from beef fat and other ingredients, but as time and technology have advanced, it is now plant-based oils transformed into a solid during the hydrogenation process, which we call margarine.)
