Why throw emulsifier away? If the shortening manufacturer dares not add his emulsi- fier after the deodorization step, he must figure on losing part of it in the deodorizer.

The way to avoid this is to use the unique Myveral® Distilled Managlycerides. With this particular emulsifier there is no worry about odor, taste, or stability. Mo- lecular distillation takes care of that. So there is no need to make up for what wil l wind up in the deodorizer condensers.

Deodorizer savings are only part of it. There are even bigger reasons why the concentrated mono of Myverol Distilled Monoglycerides goes a great deal farther than do the common mono-diglyceride mixtures. The only

real way to know how much less Myverol it takes to do a given job is to send for a sample and do some compari- son testing. Not only is there money to be saved, but better quality commercial and household shortening to be turned out--better quality due in part to more uni- form mono content.
