Pure Maple

We are the largest buyers-so we are told
of Vermont Maple Syrup. All our wheat is
cooked in it before it is faxed.
Our object is that incompatible flavor. To
make Mapl-Flake the most delicious-as it is
the most digestible-of all cereal foods.
Taste is of tremendous Importance. .
q With children for instance. The food that is
best for them often needs to be forced on them.
But they beg for Mapl-Flake. Was there ever
child who did not like maple sugar.
The more Mapl-Flake a child eats the less it
will eat of food not so good.
Wheat is the perfect food. But wheat, in
most forms, is only partly digestible.
1t consists largely of starch. And starch, to
be dgestible, must be made soluble. The par
tic1es must be separated so the digestive juices
can get to them.
= That requires process of So hours, and
Mapl- Flake alone employs it.
81, Our wheat is steam cooked for six hours;
then cured Then faxed so thin that the full
heat Of our ovens gets to each atom. Then the
. fakes are toasted for 30 minutes in a heat OF
200. degrees: -.
