Enjoyable
Efficiency
It's a fine thing to gain this end in an enjoyable,
happy way.
The food one eats should not only contain the
maximum of body, nerve and brain building quali
ties, but should rate high as an appetizer.
Grape-Nuts
is unique in both these properties. Made of whole
wheat and malted barley, it retains the wonderful
nutriment of these grains, including their mineral
elements which are vital for health. At the same time
Grape-Nuts is a delicious food, possessing a natural
sweetness combined with a delicate malt flavor.
Served- with cream, or good milk, Grape-Nuts is
_ ideal for children and grown-ups, building and main
taining the system for the demands of life in a pleas
ant, enjoyable way.
