Spreading the Meat Taste,

In place of using meat to season
beans, ETC., as before the war, use
fryings, such as bacon fryings and
to increase the amount Of fryings
put some lard in the skillet when
frying the meat; thus fiavors all the
grease with the bacon taste. Then
pour these into small crock.
This method increases the amount
OF frying about one-half. and flayors
things with the meat taste without the
added expense.
