Who Put the Vinegar in the Salt


Book Description

The world offers much beneficial self-help advice. Shouldn't the Christian seek to be the best possible version of themselves? Aren't we supposed to be good people? Why not look to the world to solve life's problems? Because God has called us to be salt. While there is much good to be found, like vinegar, the world's best advice falls short of God's recipe to live a victorious Christian life. In a down-home, friendly manner, the author provides analogies, inspirational stories, anecdotes, a wealth of Scripture, and optional study guides for both individuals and groups, inviting the believer to discover God's desires for his salt.

Story of Crisco


Book Description

Crisco's history began in pre-Civil War America when William Proctor, a candle-maker, and his brother-in-law James Gamble, a soap-maker, joined forces to compete against the other candle- and soap-makers in the Cincinnati area. By cornering the market on cottonseed oil, Proctor and Gamble sidestepped the meat packer's monopoly on the price of lard and tallow. With electrification, the need for lard-based candles decreased and the new vegetable product needed a new market. With a wealth of cottonseed oil at their disposal, the answer was Crisco. In order to market their product, Proctor & Gamble distributed for free Marion Neil's 1921 cookbook, The Story of Crisco. It provides a history of Crisco, information on the benefits of the product, as well as recipes for soup, fish, meat, vegetables, cakes, bread, and more, all using Crisco. The book also includes a calendar of dinners for every day of the year.
