Comment: "Good call, Paul. Though I'm not sure this is quite it yet, rendimento in the context I am translating is definitely more along the lines of "best yield". I did get reference as to that sense (sec.edgar-online.com/2005/ 06/30/0001104659-05-030766/Section5.asp), but I feel that BEST YIELD is somewhat technical for an ad line for a jello mix (or is it?) I really appreciate your contribution though!"

NOTE to EDUPA:
In English, especially in marketing terms, how much you get out of a product is by definition its value. “More Value for Your Dollar” is one of the oldest and most common product marketing terms in American English.

Best yield for an ad? for a punch line? Ask any native speaker and he or she will tell you what value means in this context. Oh well...Good luck with your translation.

: I'm not sure rendimento is along those lines. I feel that rendimento has more to do, for example, with how much food you can get when preparing a cake mix, or dessert etc, or how mcuh laundry you can do per box of detergent.

Osmar Jardim
: I fully agree as far as we are "translating" the word/expression and not "creating" a slogan, in which case the price would be another, of course (he he he)
