Quality Foods
These foods of superlative quality are at all times maintained on a basis of unvarying uniformity.
Their worth is dependable. Consumers will find their expectations fully realized every time they purchase an item bearing one of these labels. There are no exceptions - no playing fast and loose with values - no apologies ever offered for these goods. They are always right.
Another important thing. Quality considered, the use of these foods is a genuine economy. You not only secure a larger return in actual value for your expenditure, but these foods, because of their sheer goodness, are consumed to the last particle - there is no waste.
