I Found It On The
est Airline
In The World
I spend a lot of time.travelling, Hooking for exciting
new products and sometimes I find them in
unexpected places.
Recently, I discovered a clever new item on
Singapore Airlines (in my opinion, Singapore is the
best airline I've ever travelled on - rnbablybecause
it's not bound by restrictions of I.A.TA.). The item?
Every meal tray included a toothpick than had a
built-in holder containing dental floss. Returning
home, I obtained 200 sample packages and put chem at the cash registers
of a supermarket, trial -priced at $1.49 for a pack of 30. They sold out in less than 2
weeks!!
That's why we're offering packages of 30 E -Z Floss Toothpicks - but not at the
trial -price of $1.49 - INSTEAD WE'RE ONLY CHARGING 99
cents.AVAILABLE: L, LS, Z. P.S. American Airlines gives credit on its
Advantage Program for Singapore Airlines Mileage.
EMORIE
OF H Y GRANDMOTHER'S
PICNIC TABLE
1 had the good fortune of being born into a generation when most
mothers still owned farms. My grandmother McGuigan had a
in Cedar Springs, Ontario. (1 know it sounds fictional but that's
tWrcal name). I spent every summer there. 1 remember setting up a
stand in front of the farm house where I sold our freshly picked Peaches
'N' Cream corn (if you don't know this sweet variety, you're missing one
of gastronomy's greatest pleasures). I suppose my lifelong devotion to
food was bom at my grandmother's table because her cooking was
exemplary. It had to be; after all, in those days good food was the key to
attracting and keeping the best hired hands.
The other night, I went home and opened a sample jar of our new No
Natne " Whole Baby Pickled Beets. All it took was one taste and my
mind was flooded with memories; for the first time in 30 years, 1
pictured my grandmother's picnic table with all the farm hands sitting
around. Before I realized it, I had eaten the entire jar. Perhaps you've
forgotten how good Whole Baby Pickled Beets are? Why not try a 500
mL jar of this. great new, old-time No Name'"" product at only $1.49?
Available: L, LS, NF, Z.

My Mother's Secret Baking Ingredient
Tony Roldan's Secret Tenderizer
My dad loved BUTTERMILK; my mother swore that whenever a
baking recipe calls for buttermilk - you know the end product is going to
be light and tasty; and the late, great, Canadian chef, Tony Roldan, told
Jim White that buttermilk is what makes his Sunday Grilled Chicken
(in Tony & Jim's Cookbook) so moist and tender. Until July 13, we have
Neilsor''s Buttermilk at a special price of only 99 cents a litre!!!
LACTOSE INTOLERANT?
Jim White's mother had a problem drinking milk since Jim was bom.
She's one of the nearly 20 per cent of all Canadians who have a limited
tolerance to milk ; which means she lacks a certain enzyme to break
down the sugar in milk, called lactose.
Recently, however, Jim gave his mom a carton of a new product,
Lacteeze, which is ,2% milk in which most of the lactose has been
broken down into two easily digestible sugars, glucose and galactose.
Now Jim's mom has milk everyday!! Lacteeze 2% Lactose -Reduced
Milk is only $1.69 a litre. Available: L, LS, NF, Z.

BAR -B- CH1CKENSECRET
The problem with arbecuing whole chickens is that it takes far no long and by the
time the inside is done, the outside is burned black. The'solurion is to cut the bird
down the hack hone and remove all the hones, except those in the wings and legs.
Then, all you have to do is lay rhe partially honed bird in a barbecue basket. This
wily, no part is thicker than an inch and the whole bird grills in 10 to 15 minutes.
For years, I've prepared chicken in this manner at home; this .summer, someone
suggested that it would he a great idea to sell partially honed birds like this.. The
problem, however, was finding someone willing to do the backbreaking (literally!)
labour. Finally, we found a supplier to prepare SEMI -BONELESS,
READY -TO -BARBECUE, SWISS CHALET CHICKENS. All the bones have
been removed except for the wing drumettes and leg drum sticks!! But you don't pay
an unconscionable premium for this special preparation. Until July 13, you pay. only
$8.80/kg, or $3.99116!!! In addition, we have fresh Swiss Chalet Chicken Parts: 1/4
breast, 1/4 leg and 1/2 Lhickens at just $3.7 3/kg, or $1.69/16.
