Everyday Foods in War Time

Literature

5.0

Everyday Foods in War Time was written during the time of food rationing during the WW2 years. This book gives the homemaker at the time a lot of good advice about saving money as well as providing good nutrition for her family. It's fascinating to read about meat being 10 cents a pound and dry fruits being cheaper than fresh! And learning that potatoes and bananas are nutritionally similar! Who would ever imagine serving fried or baked bananas on a bed of white rice?
