3. Buy only sugar enough to make 

 the meals palatable; it is not needed for 

 food. 



One and a half ounces, or about 3 level 

 tablespoonfuls daily of sugar, honey, 

 molasses, or syrup for each person is 

 enough. Not more than 1 ounce of this 

 should be in the form of sugar 



Spending more than necessary for 

 sugar when the purse is low cuts off the 

 family from other food more nourishing. 



Fi'esh Vegetables 



4. Buy each day potatoes and one 

 other vegetable — cabbage, onions, car- 

 rots, turnips, beets, or the like. 



Children may have daily 2 or 3 medi- 

 um-sized potatoes and I pound or more 

 of some other vegetable. 



Grown persons can eat daily G to 8 

 medium potatoes and h pound or more 

 of other vegetables. 



Cereals 



5. Buy no more wheat than the Food 

 Administration directs. For other cereals 

 use rolled oats, pinhead oatmeal, corn 

 meal, hominy, barley, rice, and buck- 

 wheat. 



Flours, meals, and breakfast foods 

 made from the entire grain are more de- 

 sirable than the others. These include 

 water-ground corn meal, rolled oats or 

 oatmeal, and cracked wheat. 



Dried peas and beans and plenty of 

 potatoes make less bread necessary. 



Fruits 



6. Give every member of the family 

 a little fruit every day. 



Apples, fresh or dried prunes, and 

 raisins are among the cheapest fruits. 



Varied Diet 



7. All that is necessary to keep the 

 family alive and well is told in the above 

 list of foods ; if more is spent it may give 

 variety and better flavor to the meals. 



If the family purse allows — 



Meat may be added for the grown 

 people. 



Eggs may be added for all the family. 



More may be spent for milk, cream, 

 butter, cheese, fruits, vegetables, fats 

 and sweets. 



The first six rules provide a plain but 

 safe diet for the family; additions may 

 be pleasing, but are no more wholesome.
