11. RE milk delivery - The milk was not homogenized;

The cream was at the top and you had to shake it to get the cream spread throughout the milk. The bottles were glass and were rinsed and put back out side the back door for the milkman to take back.

Peanut butter also was not homogenized, as most is today, although it's still possible to buy in some places the peanut butter with th oil on the top. My kids never liked the oil-on-top kind, so I never bought it.

When oleo-margarine was first introduced, the dairy farmer industry was opposed to the introduction of this "fake" product. So the earliest oleo-margarine was whitish in a soft plastic bag, with a small capsule of yellow coloring in it. You had to break the capsule inside the plastic bag and massage the yellow coloring all throughout the white product to make it resemble butter, which it was supposed to replace.
