You can kind of understand why they didn't slap "Vollrath" on the booklet's cover. It sounds too Tolkien-ish for domestic pursuits.

Heh heh. "Butt." Also, the pasta became a fish dish because they threw in a can of clams.

Mmmm... ellipses... they're what's for dinner.

Yes, all our foodstuffs were lovingly prepped by off-duty nurses. That's why our chicken soup is 50% more therapeutic than that of our leading competitor.

All or most of these food photos are likely the work of Albert Gommi. I have a dollar paperback called A Picture Treasury Of Good Cooking which features many of the same pictures. They've popped up in mid-century promos from many other companies, too.

Front cover of a 42-page spiral-bound promotional, published by The Vollrath Stainless Steel Company of Sheboygan, Wisconsin. It's nice that Mrs. America is so well-trained that dinner matches her outfit and the kitchen accessories. (Originally posted to flickr on January 30th, 2011.)

Somehow this product never really took off, did it? Maybe people couldn't see the point of buying mega-salty powdered soup in a can and then adding water. After all, they could already buy moderately salty condensed soup in a can and add water. I believe these pages are from either Life or Look magazine.
