#margarine

Fun extra:

The word #margarine (as in the butter substitute) is ultimately derived from the same source. A French chemist called the substance "margarin" (later "margarine") in the early 1800s for its "pearly luster," and derived from the term "acide margarique" (=margaric acid, a fatty acid named for its lustrous appearance).
