Grated cheese may be stirred into oatmeal porridge or mixed with the floury 

 contents of baked potatoes; even hasty puddings may be converted into a savoury 

 dish by the addition of a little grated cheese. 



Fish-pudding (made by mixing the remains of any cold, cooked whitefish with 

 bread-crumbs, grated cheese, and ketchup), vegetable marrows stuffed with a similar 

 mixture, turnips served with white sauce into which cheese has been stirred, are 

 but a few suggestions how to provide " pleasure-giving " and wholesome food at 

 small cost of time or money only nevel- omit to add the dissolved bicarbonate of 

 potash. 



Fat is always an essential of wholesome meals; it exercises a definite influence 

 on digestion, and is an agent in the prevention of that prevalent trouble 

 constipation besides being a source of fuel reserve to the body. How to provide 

 it in a pleasurable form is not always easy, especially where the supply of milk 

 and cream or butter is restricted. It so often happens that the fat of meat is 

 disliked; and distasteful food is ill-digested. 



During the winter, in particular, a liberal supply of fat in the diet is important 

 to health ; fortunately it is .lust at this colder season of the year that conditions 

 are favourable to a form of fat in food which is rarely disliked namely, puddings, 

 in the compounding of which lard, suet, or dripping play a part.
