Hey man.. your offending all the dutch members on this site... which consist of me... and... myself...
and yes Pindakaas = peanut cheese... the dutch name for Butter.. Boter was actually a protected name.. the peanut paste with no name was compared to "Liver Cheese" a Austrian delicacy that contains no cheese so in the end they called it Peanut Cheese like Liver Cheese and it became Pindakaas..

You mean like a trademark?
|
Neh.. more like it could be only used for real diary butter products cause margarine was coming up back then.. they didn't want margarine to be confused with butter
|
At one time, margarine here in the US was pink so people wouldn't confuse it with butter.

i can't believe it's not pink butter
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
- George Orwell, ‘1984’
