1. BIG DISCOVERY. If you haven't tried
Flash yet, here's a little encouragement
to do it now. Use the coupon to try this
Large Size and put it to the test. Discover
how fast Flash cleans the floor, with no
need to rinse or wipe dry. How it makes
walls and paintwork look new again.
2. BIG PERFORMANCE. Now make the
most important discovery, how Flash
protects the surface of your bath. Unlike
the cleaner you probably use now, there
are no gritty particles in Flash so it can't
scratch the enamel surface. You'll notice
how much smoother the bath feels, how
much shinier it looks from the first time
you use it. And you'll find this Giant Size
just right for the bathroom.
3. BIG CONVENIENCE. It would be a
nuisance, wouldn't it, dashing to the
bathroom every time you need Flash
in the kitchen? Especially when you
keep discovering new uses for it. Like
cleaning worktops, getting rid of
stubborn scuff and heel marks, and so
on and on. So do yourself a favour:
Make this big King Size your special
kitchen pack. It's perfect for the job.
4. BIG ECONOMY. Considering all the
uses for Flash and the big jobs that come
along, like washing down before
decorating, the cleverest way to use your
coupon could be on this new Jumbo Size.
By buying in quantity, you can save even
more.
Whatever size of Flash you buy,
this coupon saves you money.

Dec 1941: Cheese Casserole ad from Kraft, Bournville, Creamola (+Kraft Cheddar; Kraft Velveeta; Creamola; and Bournville Cocoa) «A MAIN DISH OF CHEESE ONCE A WEEK Cheese Casserole»

This advertisement promotes cheese casserole, Kraft cheese, Bournville Cocoa and Creamola Pudding. The advertisement for the Cheese casserole includes the ingredients and instructions on how to make the casserole.

A MAIN DISH OF CHEESE ONCE A WEEK
Cheese Casserole

RADIO TIMES, ISSUE DATED DECEMBER
INGREDIENTS:
¼ lb. rice
½ oz. Kraft Cheddar or
Kraft Velveeta shred-
ded (see note below)
2 small onions parboiled
½ oz. margarine
½ cupful bread raspings
Seasoning
METHOD:
Cook rice in plenty of boiling water for 25 minutes. Drain,
cool a little, season. Grease a baking dish with a little of the
margarine, coat with bread raspings, put in layer of rice, add
a few bits of the onion and some of the cheese, season before
laying in more rice. Follow with onion and cheese, spread
remaining rice, scatter with cheese and put under grill or
in hot oven to melt the cheese and brown. (Sufficient for 4
people.) Serve with winter broccoli and a little relish.
Note: This recipe is best made with either Kraft Velveeta or Kraft Cheddar, but
you can also make it with plain cheese.
KRAFT'S COOKERY EXPERT'S
War-Time Service for Housewives
HERE'S an excellent main dish you
can make for dinner or supper. No
trouble about meat-you use cheese!
Can cheese take the place of meat for
the main meal of the day? Yes! Cheese is
a first-class body-building food. It does
Just what meat does. It supplies the body
with certain proteins the very same
proteins as meat-which are necessary
for growth and for "repairing" the daily
wear and tear of the body. Cheese also
contains those important "protective"
substances, calcium and phosphorus.
Can you get Kraft Cheddar or Velveeta
for this recipe, and if not-what then?
Unfortunately, because of the tremen-
dous demand, we can't promise that
you'll be able to get either of these from
your grocer. But our cookery expert has
made the casserole with both ordinary
cheese and with Kraft, and even with plain
cheese it's a grand dish. Try it today!
