Text:
Beware of imitations. They will not keep, and it cost one New York firm $60,000 to find it out before they again returned to LaMont's Improved Crystallized Egg. No breaking, no bad eggs, no shells, no waste. Simply fresh eggs with the water expelled, dissolves readily in cold, lukewarm (never hot) water or milk...Years of continuous use by the largest pie and cracker bakers in the world prove it superior to cold storage or any other preserved or held eggs.
