Remember when?
As I spread margarine on my cracker to go with my chicken soup today, I had a chuckle. Remember when you had to squeeze the little package of food colouring before adding it to margarine? My Granny used to give me this " special" job. I loved it and felt so important.

I remember the packaged margarine. You had to break the little button first. Gosh, I don't want to think about how many yrs. ago that was. They couldn't color it because the dairy companies didn't want people to think it was butter.

While I have no memory of having to stir food coloring into margarine I do remember spreading on crackers to eat with my chicken noodle soup. I didn't know other people did that. Thanks for the sweet memory

I remember packets coming in the margarine packaging but I don't remember us using the coloring. I think we must have just used it white (but my memory often fails me). Did the packet have flavoring too or just the color? (My memory is from our "old" house so this was pre-1967).
