American Bulk Food
in West Bloomfield Plaza has
come up with another health
kick goodie . . . It's a no fat,
no cholesterol, low sodium

former pharmacist who got
started when a diabetic once

good food for people with his
ailment, must stay awake
nights thinking of formulas
for his rapid-selling favorites

only at Marty's West Bloom-
field store . . . Others in his
chain haven't gotten them
