Food Value
of a Soda Cracker
You have heard
other foods make muscle, and still others are
tissue building and
You know that most foods have one or more
of these elements, but do you know that no
food contains them all in such properly balanced
proportions as a good soda cracker?
The United States Government report shows
that soda crackers contain less water, are
richer in the muscle and fat elements, and
have a much higher per cent of the tissue
building and heat forming properties than any
article of food made
That is why Unecda Biscuit should form
an important part of every meal. They repre
sent the superlative of the soda cracker, all
their goodness and nourishment being brought
from the oven to you in a package that is proof
against air, moisture and dust the" price being
too small to mention.
