Item description from seller

B&W and Color Illustrations; This booklet is in Very Good+ condition and was issued without a dust jacket. The booklet and its contents are in clean, bright condition. There is one tiny nick to the bottom front edge of the booklet cover. The text pages are clean and bright. "Wesson was originally a trademark of the Southern Cotton Oil Company, named after David Wesson (1861–1934) , a food chemist at the firm who, in 1899 developed a novel process for deodorizing cottonseed oil, producing the first commercial all-vegetable shortenings from cottonseeds. This new product was marketed as Snowdrift. The Savannah, Georgia, factory was erected in 1911 and torn down in 2004. In the 1920s, the vegetable oil division was spun off as the Wesson Oil & Snowdrift Company. In 1960, this firm merged with Hunt's Foods, Inc. To become Hunt-Wesson Foods, which later merged with Beatrice Foods. The brand was sold to ConAgra Foods along with many other former Beatrice brands in 1990. " (from Wikipedia).
