Pecan Butter
A New Product of
Georgia Research
Georgia homemakers, long ac
custom to using pecan halves and
pieces to give the distinctive fla
vor of pecans to all kinds of foods
from salads to cakes, can now
look forward to imparting the
pecan flavoi’ to many other foods
with pecan butter, a new pecan
product developed at the Georgia
Experiment Station of the Uni
versity of Georgia College of
Agriculture.
Dr. J. G. Woodroof, head of the
Food Processing Department at
the Georgia Experiment Station,
is enthusiastic about the possibi
lities of pecan butter. As an ex
cellent flavoring ingredient for
many types of foods, he says pe
can butter shows great promise
as a new end product of the
Georgia pecan crop which has a
veraged well above 35 million
pounds for the past 10 years and
this year is expected to total 44
million pounds.
While pecan butter is not yet
produced commercially, several
business firms are definitely inte
rested and Dr. Woodroof believes
commerical production of pecan
butter will surely come in time.
In fact, Dr. Woodroof says that
with a little imagination he can
see pecan butter one day attain
ing an economic importance to
pecan growers approaching that
which peanut butter now has
for peanut producers.
Although too astringent to use
as a spread for bread, pecan but
ter is excellent as a flavoring and
source of unsaturated fat in milk
shakes, cream frostings, chiffon
pies, bread, hot cakes, cookies
and confections, says Dr. Wood
roof. Pecan butter has more aro
ma and flavor than coarsely
ground pecans and has distinctly
different uses in milk products,
bakery items and confections, he
explains.
Formulas for making pecan
butter and 10 pecan butter pro
ducts are given in a new circular
of the Georgia Agricultural Ex
periment Stations written by Dr.
Woodroof and Mr. E K. Heaton,
associate food technologist at
Experiment.

* PREACHERS . . .
. . . should preach only one sermon or so a year, it doesn’t take constant ‘adver
tising’ to root out sin.
* The TRAFFIC LIGHTS . . .
. . . at main highway intersections should be turned off to save electricity; every
one knows they are dangerous corners and there will be no accidents. No need
for ‘constant advertising’ to influence people to stop and look.
* TEACHERS ...
. . . don’t need to constantly review lessons. Tell the children just once and
they’ll never forget.
A
* HIGHWAY PATROLMEN
. . . can stop driving up and down the highways. Everybody knows the law and
knows there are patrolmen. No need to constantly remind drivers by ‘advertis
ing’ the fact through patrolling.
* All Business Firms • • •
. . . that advertise are just giving their money away and fast going broke; mail
order firms who send out catalogs are also wasting money ... all the people in
this section know what’s sold in Brantley county, and all that advertising doesn’t
influence them a bit — they all shop at home!
If you are one of the foolish kind — like the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris
that has stood for six centuries, but still rings its bell each day to let people
know it’s there — you recognize the basic truth that regularity is the single most
important element in effective advertising and Brantley county’s most effective
advertising medium is . . .
