BUTTER Has No Substitute
Copra, Cocoanut Oil and Oleomargarine
Is it really the poor man's butter or the rich man's graft?
"Now what is Oleomargarine? How is it made? Does any man want
to feed his chil'iren on it? Let us see?"
Oleomargarines are made from skimmed milk, rocoanut oil or tallow,
and salt. The main ingredient is skimmed milk, whk:h has no fat or life
sustaining substances.
Now let us look into the ingredients. Many margarines are advertised
as the "White Meat of the Cocoanut." O.eoaiiut oil such as used in
American oleo is made from Copra. Copra is dried cocoanut meat, but let
us see the condition of this stuff before it ia refined.
Copra comej from the Philippine Islands. The cocoanuts fall from the
trees, are broken open and the meat dried in heaps under the tropical
suns This is called Copra.
When dry. Copra looks and smells something like stable manure, or
worse. When the stuff is ready for shipment, swarms of half-naked
Malays load it on ships, tramping it in the holds of vessels with bare feet.
An army of naked Malays sweating under tropical heat, tramping Copra
that is going to be made into the poor man's butter. Think of it!
When Copra arrives at American oii mills, it is run out of the ships
with conveyors. Generlaly it is piled up in the open air where it attracts
millions of flies and looks exactly like piles of stable manure and smells
a darn sight worse.
This compost is then ground and pressed between steam heated rollers.
The raw oil is the most rancid and evil-smelling thing in the world. Until
recently it was used exclusively for soap grease.
Scientists discovered ways of refining it. The process is simple.
First, the oil is heated to a very high degree. It is then placed in
vats and large quantities of sodium injected. The rancidity attacks the
sodium solution and is eaten away. The oil is then treated with ether,
which process solidifies the oil.
And this is the stuff they advertise as the "White Meat of the Cocoa
nut." Here is a recipe for making 1,000 pounds of Oleo:
700 pounds of cocoanut oil at 6Vjc - $45.50
30 gallons of skimmed milk 1.50
51 pounds of salt - 1.00
$48.00
Did you ever stop to think it requires five pounds of Oleo to furnish
the nourishment for the human system that one pound of butter will
furnish?
