Description

Crisco Ad 1935Black and white 6″ x 11″ ad for their Fat. The headline claims that “You can’t fool your stomach so cook with Crisco…the wholesome fat that digests quickly” and there are three pictures that tell a story. First we see a young mother yelling at her boy and his friend for making so much noise. The friend asks why the mother is so cross and her son said that she’s got one of her stomach spells”. Nest we see the mother looking over her husband’s shoulder at a newspaper ad that talks about how quickly Crisco will digest and he, with a look of fear in his eye, asks her to try it. In the last picture she is busy cooking more fat-filled goodies and offering them to her son and his friend who is being told that “she’s this way all the time now”. The text talks about this “light, creamy wholesome fat that digests quickly” and gives a recipe for Chocolate Pinwheels.
