Fresh fruits packed with Vitamin C There’s more to compare in food buying than price. Bargain hunting and shopping for lower prices is a real challenge. You feel you’ve ac complished something when you feed your family for less. Comparing nutritional value is an even greater challenge and may be even more important. For instance, each family member needs vitamin C daily. Needs vary from 35 milligrams for babies to 60 mgs. for adults. You can meet this need by having orange juice every day, giving the baby 3 or 4 o u . and the adults Vi cup. You can spend your efforts hunt ing for the best bargain on orange juice, stocking up when the price is low. Frozen or canned orange juice is often the least expensive source of vitamin C. On the other hand, you can be come more knowledgeable about other foods containing vitamin C and the amounts of those you can serve to meet that daily need. from pans to wire rack immediately.
