What You Should Know
About Vinegar
.. There arc three things that every housewife ought
to know about vinegar she uses:
' FIRST That It Is absolut3ly pure;
SECOND That it has 'the delicate flavor, and,
THIRD That it suits the purpose for which she
uses it
HEINZ PURE MALT VINEGAR Brewed from
choice barley malt, clarified and aged after the manner
of the best wines; it has a natural golden brown color
and delicious, aromatic flavor not found in any other
vinegar. '
HEINZ PURE CIDER VINEGAR Made from the
pure juice of sound, fresh apples, and aged to a degree
which develops the full natural flavor of the apple.
HEINZ CRYSTAL WHITE VINEGAR It is an ex
cellent table and salad vinegar; it's perfectly colorless,
pure and wholesome. '
