In our times, almost the same as yours these two brands had a close competition with the ruling ones – Dalda vs Rath & Colgate vs my nanihaal’s chosen favourite during early 80s. Folks from Karnataka may figure out! pic.twitter.com/hQpnDnf4nm

The empty Dalda container (plastic one) was later used by mom to keep ‘Haldhi’ or ‘Tea leaves’🙂🙂

Dalda almost replaced Desi Ghee in late 1900s.
If I remember correctly 1980s there was a furor about animal fat being used in manufacturing of Dalda or Vanaspathi as it was popularly known , and list its place in indian kitchens!
Colgate tooth powder was poor man’s toothpaste!

I have used both.
I vividly remember, Dalda was known as Vegetable ghee and used to be sold for around Rs. 4.00-4.50 a kg and desi ghee used to be priced at Rs. 9.50 a kg.— Rajendra Kumbhat (@Enraged_Indian) July 9, 2020
