A few days ago cartoon figure Mickey Mouse turned 90 and Superman celebrated 80 years of existence sometime in 2018. Best of all, today, December 4, is the 90th birthday of Dena Dietrich, the star of the Chiffon Margarine ads of the 1970s. To refresh your memories here is the original commercial combined with a spoof ad for WJW-TV8 in Cleveland:

Born December 4, 1928 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
Height 5' 8½" (1.74 m)
Dena Dietrich was born on December 4, 1928 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. She is an actress, known for History of the World: Part I (1981), Karen (1975) and Philly (2001).
Best known for her TV margarine commercial in which she utters the famous line: "It's not nice to fool Mother Nature!"
For several years she resided in the Fairfield County town of Newtown, Connecticut. There she lived on a tranquil, naturalistic property replete with ponds and streams surrounding a modern, Japanese-esque house befitting the domicile of TV's beloved "Mother Nature".
This theater-based character player appeared in a number of musicals over the years including "The Threepenny Opera" (as Lucy Brown), "Funny Girl" (understudy for Mrs. Brice), and "Here's Where I Belong," based on the novel "East of Eden".
She studied drama at HB Studio in Greenwich Village in New York City.
