-Guaranteed.
Cannot be excelled because it is made right. When
baked it still retains the Super Flavor known only to
flours that are made by the Marvel Mills process.
“Enid’s Best” is made by the short process, being in the
process of being milled only two or three minutes, while
with other flours it takes 30 to 45 and the “pep” and
original wheat flavor is lost.
*
Remember our motto: “You’ve tried the rest, now try
Enid’s Best,” the peppy flour with the original wheat flavor.
