FROSTED FOODS


FOODS FOR HOME FREEZERS


METROPOLITAN has pioneered for several years and has now perfected the distribution of FROSTED FOODS in large size packages for home consumption AT SAVINGS UP TO 25%


1


Cut your food budget up to 25% by buying FROSTED FOODS in quantity, and at the same time enjoy the luxury of always having a "full larder" ready for any emergency. Whip up a delicious meal at a moment's notice, complete with vegetables and fruits, out-of-season delicacies, fish or meats, and ice cream or other desserts.


Your family will appreciate the variety that FROSTED FOODS will add to their meals - strawberries in December, fresh seafoods all year round, favorite vegetables in season and out. And you will appreciate the advan- tages of doing your ordering only once or twice a month. You order in quantity, but use only what you want when you want it. Most of our brands of frozen vegetables are loosely packed so that you may take any number of servings from the package. What you do not use will remain in perfect condition stored in your low temperature cabinet.
