Of course, if a rice pudding is pale blue in colour and the rice is all swimming round, people will get up from the table and think unjust things about rice puddings. But if your rice padding is made with Milkmaid Evaporated Milk it will be creamy in colour-neither too thick nor too thin-and people who do not usually like rice pudding will eat it rather eagerly.

Milkmaid Evaporated Milk is pure country milk con- centrated to the consistency of cream.

It improves all milk puddings 100%.
