Transcript

The Craft Foods Company presents Willard Waterman as the Great Gildest Leave. The Great Gildest Leave is brought to you partially transcribed by the Craft Foods Company. Undoubtedly, you're always on the lookout for new recipes, so be sure to look for the fine ideas on the labels of craft oil.

You'll find new specialties like Italian French dressing or Orange Pecan waffles with their own orange sauce. a bottle of craft oil tomorrow. It's lighter bodied because it's super fine. That's why craft could rightly claim it, the most wonderful oil ever created for homemade salad dressings,
