"Cottolene Cottolene was a brand of shortening made of beef suet and cottonseed oil produced in the United States from 1868 until the early 20th century.

"Shortening Shortening is any fat that is a solid at room temperature and used to make crumbly pastry and other food products. Although butter is solid at room temperature and is frequently used in making pastry, the term ""shortening"" seldom refers to butter, but is more closely related to margarine. Originally shortening was synonymous with lard, but with the invention of margarine by French chemist Hippolyte Mège-Mouriès in 1869, margarine also came to be included in the term. Since the invention of hydrogenated vegetable oil in the early 20th century, ""shortening"" has come almost exclusively to mean hydrogenated vegetable oil."
