Why is the soda
cracker to-day such
a universal food?
People ate soda
crackers in the old
days, it is true-but
they bought them
from a barrel or box
and took them home
in a paper bag, their
crispness and flavor
all gone.
To-day there is a
soda cracker which
is the recognized
staple - Unee d a
Biscuit.
Uneeda Biscuit are
the most nutritious
food made from
flour and should
be eaten every day
by every member
of the family from
the youngest to the
oldest.
