fry with it for "company dinners," when things must be
extra good a light, golden-brown and tasty.
The thing you like about foods fried in Wesson Oil Is
the rich crust made by the oil itself. That is why you eat
fried foods. You like the taste of the crisp, light coating
made by the fat you use in frying.
Of all the places where a good oil is important, !ts most
important in fried foods, Why not use Wesson Oil for
frying every day? .
Is it the Tost? If youll price the 4-Pint Frying Sizd
Can youll find that it costs less than you 'think. The
Frying Size Can will make Wesson Oil your every day
friend for frying.
