Savita Products, German-made, Scrapped by Foltis Fischer Co.

That thousands of New Yorkers heretofore using the German yeast product, Savita, will do without it, became known yesterday as the Foltis Fischer Corporation restaurants and retail shops prepared to ban this and other German imports.

R. W. Hattaway, purchasing agent for the Foltis Fischer Corporation announced that within the next day or two the board of directors would move to ban all German dispensible imports from their fifteen restaurants and four retail stores in New York.

The Savita product has been off the list of a number of restaurant chains for some weeks, and it is understood that it will be black-balled in other cafes and shops. The Wil-low Cafeterias and Stewart’s Cafeterias are understood to have dropped Savita from their purchasing lists.

Savita is produced in five forms, the two most important being in paste and cube form. According to a food expert the paste comes in small cans bearing the inscription “Made in U. S. America.” It is reported to originate in Germany and, according to its American distributors, the Battle Creek Food Company, is processed, packed, and prepared in Battle Creek.

A recent copy of Dr. Kellogg’s Good Health Magazine carried an item as follows: “A yeast extract prepared in Germany, where it is known as CENOVIS and is highly recommended by Dr. Von Noorden, is unusually rich in Vitamin B. This extract has been imported and is now available in this country under the commercial name of “SAVITA.”

Individual Savita cubes bear the label, “Made in Germany,” but the package in which they are sold bears no such inscription.
