86-Lincaster Farming, Saturday, June 11, 1994 Borne On The Benge A They say a picture is worth a thousand words. When it comes to genuine dairy products, the “pic ture” is a drop of milk encircling the single word “REAL.” The REAL Seal, as it’s come to be known by marketers and con sumers alitoe, speaks volumes about the genuine dairy content and quality of the products it adorns. It’s assurance to consumers that a dairy product meets rigorous standards to identify uniformity, value, and wholcsomcness. Con sumers can tell at a glance if an item is a genuine dairy product. When it comes to cooking, dis hes made with dairy products far out-tastes those made with imita tion products. These are cream of the lop recipes from our readers. Enjoy!
