The Box Luncheon 1531 



Differences in the food needs of various individuals are too often over- 

 looked, especially in the case of children's luncheons. As a result, lunch- 

 eons frequently consist of foods that are difficult for children to digest, 

 such as pies, doughnuts, meat, and pickles; at the same time such lunch- 

 eons lack simple, nutritious, and easily digestible foods, such as eggs, 

 bread and butter, fruit, simple cakes, cookies, and milk.
