BRITAIN’S BISCUITS
“NATIONAL EMERGENCY” BAKE
TONS NOW STORED AWAY
Thousands of tons of Britain’s new “welfare” biscuits are being stored away in preparation for a national emergency.
The biscuit has been evolved, after many tests, by British biscuit-makers who are now, to the number of 240, united with the cake-makers in the Cake and Biscuit Manufacturers’ Wartime Alliance, a non-profitmaking or-
ganisation. | The Welfare is a sweet biscuit made * from wheatmeal flour, the purest vegej table fat, and the finest grade of sugar. It gives the maximum of nutri- | tion at the low price of 9d per lb, ' and the industry regard it as the best value ever offered to the public. The biscuits are mainly oblong, for, although the ingredients are standardised, the shapes vary a little so as not to limit production to a few cutti’i'i machines.
They are carefully packed in tins stored in cases of 501 b weight which will preserve them indefinitely in all climates.
