What breed is this?

I have seen these cows for a year while I drive to work and back but have been wondering what breed they are. I have never seen cows like this before. I will try to describe them as best I can. Picture a black cow from the side...now paint its midsection white all around the cow....that is what they look like. All black except for behind the shoulder to the start of the rear...belly is also white. I have looked on the net and can't find one like this. These people have about 20 or 30 of them.

Our neighbors raise Belty's. When my kids were small they used to say they looked like Double Stuffed Oreos :baby04:
