READY TO SERVE MEATS
As the many advantages of ready-cooked canned meats have become more generally known, their universal use has constantly increased, so that to-day thousands of housewives maintain on their pantry shelves a variety of canned meats to supply all regular and emergency requirements.
Meat was first put up in cans to prolong its keeping qualities, especially during the hot weather season. So uniformly successful were these experiments that the original purpose has been almost forgotten, and canned meat now occupies an all-year-round prominent place in the national food supply.
When canned meats are sold under a nationally known brand name, such as Armour’s Veribest, you can be sure that the meats are carefully selected, U. S. Government inspected, and prepared, cooked and seasoned in sanitary, scrupulously clean kitchens by the most expert chefs. Complete sterilization, accompanied by a vacuum process of sealing, guarantees their perfect keeping qualities and enables the home manager to serve this meat on her table with all the deliciousness of meat prepared by the nation’s most expert cooks.
The cost per pound is a trifle higher than fresh meat, but it is already cooked, there is no shrinkage, it is 100% edible, and therefore can be served on the table at a relatively lower cost. Canned Meats served either hot or cold can be prepared in as many appetizing ways as fresh meat.
The housewife should always buy canned meats by brand name; for the label, plus the U. S. Government Inspection stamp, is the safest buying guide that can be found.
In every home where meals are served regularly it is a great convenience to have on the pantry shelf a complete supply of canned meats, for it takes the guesswork out of cookery, saves time and labor, and assures the home manager of a successful meat dish for any regular or emergency meal.
Any first-class dealer can supply you with a complete variety of high quality canned meats.
Always read the label when buying and be sure to look for the U. S. Government inspected and passed legend on every can of meat you buy.
