For More Hearty Soups - Add Soya
Two photographs, a hand ladling soup into a bowl and hands spreading a dark filling on bread, with headlines urging soya in soups and sandwich spreads, plus line drawings of vegetables, milk and soya flour. The technique is faint here; the domestic kitchen scenes are the plain-folks element.
