Portland/« Itise rve r Good Vacation Snacks Ltïïl' Pii'i’i $ ¿da 1 Summer season for home frauds Ladle» Free Tonight During summer vacation, kids consume an amazing amount of sriucks In between meals. Nutrition-conscious mothers wunt something for snacks that not only appeals to the Children, hut that is also good for them, When the young summerfolk come trooping in, hungry and thirsty, be prepared. For a chunge of pace, offer them their choice of fruits and pudding-type desserts in in dividual iars from the Gerber buby food shelf. Kids really like the Blueberry Buckle. Dutch Apple, Peach or Raspberry Cobbler desserts. For variety, they go for naturally-good plums, peaches, bananas and apple- auce In hot weather, these taste even better chilled. Puired with an icy fruit punch or refreshing lemonade, you have u nourishing, energy-giving snack. When there's u snack lunch to pack for outings or camp, tuck in an individual-size portion jar of Cherry Vanilla or Orange Pudding. Keep a ready supply of several varieties on the pantry shelf. And if you're food cost-conscious, you should know that these little jars of scientifically processed fruits and desserts are less expensive than other snar k products available today.
