Cookeen

Cookeen is a British brand of block vegetable fat, marketed for use in making pastry, and other baked goods. It is claimed to be usable straight from the refrigerator.

It is sold by Princes Limited, a British food producer owned by Mitsubishi. The brand is owned by Edible Oils Limited, a joint venture between Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), an American food processing corporation, and Princes. The product is produced at a factory in Erith, England.

In October 2006, Cookeen and the other hard vegetable fats manufactured by Edible Oils Limited were reformulated to remove hydrogenated vegetable oils, which contain trans fat, due to health concerns.[1]

The advertising slogan "Give 'em a lift with Cookeen" was later used by Matt Lucas in a parody song for his character George Dawes on the British comedy panel show Shooting Stars.

gollark: People assume quantum computers are magic do-anything boxes, that regular computers "can't be random", that AI is "incapable of creativity" or might randomly become "conscious"/"sentient"/humanlike and rebel, etc.
gollark: Perhaps people just don't actually care much about accurate beliefs in subjects they don't personally use much, and vaguely assume that whatever they know about those things is right enough to discuss politics and whatever.
