DEL MONTE Canned Spinach
The French people have used canned spinach for many years. It is but
recently, however, that this delicious and healthful vegetable has been made
available for all-year-round use in the American household. The DEL MONTE
process of growing, cleaning, processing and canning spinach now brings you this
fine food, ready for instant use, and better than you can prepare it fresh at

with all its flavory, healthful properties, in model canneries near the fields where
it grows. Packed in No. 2 and No. IVz cans. The recipes below call for the
No. 2^/^ size tin.
