"A package of
"A package of breakfast food" means any of a score of varieties.
Some are ready to serve, others need cooking. Some are made of
wheat, others of corn or oats. You want one certain kind, so you ask
for it by name ... the sensible way to buy any food.
THE SELECTION OF BREAD is no different than that of
cereals. Among the brands your grocer sells, there is ONE
brand that you like best because of its outstanding quality and
flavor. More than likely it is FLUHRER'S Bread. So, instead
of trusting to the memory of your grocer, who can't possibly
remember the preferences of all his customers . . . ASK FOR
FLUHRER'S BREAD BY NAME when you order. Your grocer
wants to sell you the BEST because he is anxious to please you.
Don't make your grocer guess what you want
