Great background on the butter versus margarine battles here: http://theplate.nationalgeographic.com/2014/08/13/the-butter-wars-when-margarine-was-pink/
well it was stills then moonshine, then running moonshine which My gandpap did plus the margarine so back to stills and ya we had a couple out on the farm. I remember Dandaline wine as well. Couple of shots of that and you would have a heck of a buzz and of course Bath Tub Gin. Pretinear everyone was cooking something back in the day.
Maternal grandma did bathtub gin. My uncle used to run it by walking with gallon jugs to the local clubs/bars. Grandma said if the cops stop you just drop the jug and the evidence evaporates. Everyone's dead now so I can tell the story.
