minute before bedtime. As salad it is lunch-,

the main course, in chunks it is a cocktail and
crushed it becomes an ingredient for dessert

muffin pans as follows; Put 1 to
2 teaspoons melted butter and 1
to 2 tablespoons brown sugar in

crushed pineapple, and half a
maraschino cherry in each. When
dough is light and ready for the
pans, drop a ball of dough in

Instead of using muffin pahs, you
can fix these rolls in a round or
square pan. Or do them in a ring
mold, as illustrated, making: a

' A festival is in full swing this
month at food stores. It's the an-
Inual Cheese Festival, recognizing
one of America's favorite foods.
There's cheese for everyone, for
an array for a snack or dessert
tray, a flavor teaser for salads or
casseroles, or a nutritious fining
for the family's lunch sandwich.
For cheese trays, sandwiches or
casseroles, there are some news
worthy packaged cheese items at!
; your . dealers. In the natural
cheese category, wedges of Ched
dar cheese come pre-packaged in
three ) sizes, 8-ounce, 13
ounce and 16-ounce, so you can
buy . to suit your special needs.
Family taste preferences win de
cide' whether you want mild, me
dium or sharp flavored Cheddar.
Or buy several packages for
variety.
.Ready sliced cheese is a popu
lar development in the processed
cheese field. It's the perfect
answer to quick and easy sand
wich or cheese tray preparation.
Buy the cheese sliced directly
from the loaf for full flavor, and
look for parchment paper inter
leaving - between ' each slice ' for
easy separation. , Just pull the
paper strip and you have eight
perfect slices all ready for a
cheese tray or sandwiches. .
Pasteurized process cheese
food in the 2-pound loaves is a

sandwiches, casseroles and rare
