Corn on the Cob
—the Roasting Ear
Is not more delicious than the
New
Post Toasties
In the growth of corn there is a period when the
kernels are plumped out with a vegetable milk, most
nutritious (roasting ears). As it slowly ripens this
hardens and finally becomes almost flinty.
This nutritious part of the corn is cooked, sea
soned, rolled thin, and toasted by a new process
which enhances the true corn flavour.
i
Different from ordinary corn flakes, the New
Post Toasties have a distinctive form and flavour;
and they keep their appetizing crispness, even after
cream or milk is added.
These Superior Corn Flakes come oven-fresh in
tight wax-sealed packages; and they cost no more
than ordinary "corn flakes." Insist upon having
