It seems that the opposition between "guns" and "butter" was first used  
by Goering in the 1930s to justify the German rearmament policy.  
Goering said that people need guns, not butter--since butter makes  
people fat while guns make them strong.   
 
I don't have here the original quotation, but I can find it easily if you  
want.
