@Matt_Noyes @jakebeamish From the article comments:

"All the co-ops carried margarine at that time. At the Mill City event, the CO spokesman accused co-ops of refusing to carry the product. From behind the line of people singing "Row, row, row your boat" a co-op employee who was barricaded inside the store opened the door and threw out a box of margarine to prove just how wrong the CO was."

Was reminded of this in my chat with @jakebeamish and @Matt_Noyes ;)
