What Do You Pay (or Coffee ? This question is a real live issue to every house-keeper more so today than it has been in fifty years Be Coffee-wise! OUR VERY BEST COFFEE 2 c bW Why Pay More? The fact tliat our coffee sales run into many millions of pounds annually proves that the quality must be all we claim for it, or we never could have reached our present output and the making of new Coffee friends every day. One Answer: Quality and Price M - v ll L IIIHI Our Exclusive Process Gives Troco Its Real Butter Flavor Solves the Butter Problem Troco is not merely a butter substitute; it is the successor to butter. It tastes exactly like the finest creamery butter and is as digestible as butter, with the same high nutritive value. Troco solves the butter prob lem for those who hitherto have used nothing but the best cream ery butter. These critical users say that rarely is butter so sweet and delicate in flavor. But don't just ask for "nut butter" or "nut margarine" and expect to enjoy this de luxe flavor. Ask for Troco and get the real butter flavor. Made from Vegetable Fat . Troco is made from ''fat" ex tracted from the white meat of cocoanuts the fat from the same tropic delicacy you use shredded on cake. This appetizing product is churned with pasteurized mill? by an exclusive process which gives Troco the delicate butter flavor. Troco contains no animal oils nothing but pure vegetable fats and pasteurized milk for butter flavor. The Troco Com pany makes no animal oil prod ucts. It specializes on this one product. ! Ask your dealer for a capsule of the vegetable coloring used by butter makers. Compare Troco with the Best Creamery Butter The test of Troco is on the table, in comparison with the best creamery butter. This is where it wins butter lovers. For cooking it has no equal, either in results or from the standpoint of economy. Troco goes farther jthan butter. Old laws, made before Troco was invented, compel us to label it as an oleomargarine. This is extremely misleading. Troco is a quality product used in homes where only the best is tolerated. Here flavor, quality and the assurance of fas tidious manufacturing methods insure the popularity of Troco.
