AN EXTRA SPECIAL TREAT
SWIFT’S
Georgia Cured
PEANUT MILD HAM
EXCELLENT FLAVOR
DISTINCTIVELY CURED AND SMOKED
A peanut-fed hog has unusual hams. Because of
the feed, these hams have developed an unusual
flavor — a fine texture — a delicate tenderness.
They are put in a packing plant at Moulterie,
Georgia, which enjoys a splendid reputation chiefly
through the choice peanut hams which it offers to
the public.
Its peanut hams come from only the finest of
peanut-fed hogs. These fine hams are given a special
cure. Then a special smoke. This is done by men who
know how — men who have spent most of their lives
carnig for peanut hams. That’s why you’ll find such
unusual flavor, fine texture, and delicate tenderness
in this Moultrie product.
You can get these hams at this food store.
