More About This Title The Ration Book Diet

English

Rationing was a vital part of fighting the Second World War on the home front. The Ministry of Food enlisted the cartoon characters Potato Pete and Doctor Carrot to promote the benefits of fresh fruit, vegetables, and cereals and helped families to make the most of meat, fat, sugar, and dairy products. As a result, the health of the nation soared. This book uses the wartime diet as a model to reproduce delicious healthy recipes for today.
