Kentucky Fried adds soul menu
Seeds hold germ of life
by LeLord Korde!
Modern diets ignore the axiom
that seeds hold the germ of life. Too
often overlooked is the fact that na­
ture has placed in seed foods the
concentrated essence of all nutrition
to provide for the sprouting plant.
Proteins are centered in the seeds so
the new life may receive ample nour­
ishment for normal growth.
Little by little, modern nutritional
science is inclining to the belief that
whole seed cereals (I stress “ whole**
because o f the health-blind custom
o f milling most o f the food value
out o f our cereals) can supply for
your diet a now-missing something
that form erly was there when life
and eating habits were much closer
to the primitive.
In fact, several biochemists have
told me it is their private opinion
that only when we regain that miss­
ing "something“ in our diets which
the prim itive peoples enjoyed will
we find the preventive for many of
our deficiency and wasting diseases.
For the first time in the Portland
area, one o f the Kentucky Fried
Chicken stores is o ffe rin g Spicy
Crispy chicken.
Spicy Crispy, a product w ith a
different way o f cooking from the
Original Recipe, has a distinct sharp
taste. When served with the new
“ Mean Greens’ * and Spicy Rice,
this product forms a whole new
menu available only at the new
Union Avenue store.
Tested in several Eastern markets,
the new special segment menu has
had great acceptance in those mar
kets where it has been introduced.
In the local area, this is the First of
what could be several Kentucky
Fried Chicken stores that will offer
Spicy Chicken, special side items
and the new biscuits.
seeds make a delicious confection,
with a flavor far superior to pea­
nuts.
M illet and sunflower seeds con­
tain lecithin to aid in generating
nerve electricity. When your nerves
are plentifully supplied with leci­
thin, your body abounds in nervous
energy; but when the supply of leci­
thin gets low as it does at the end of
the day. nerve energy decreases, and
you say you are “ tired and sleepy.“
A serious deficiency of lecithin in
the diet can bring on a nerve exhaus­
tion that is characterized by chronic
fatigue which rest does not alleviate.
For added low-cost protein-nutri­
tion it will pay you to get acquainted
with m illet and sunflower seeds.
Both are available in health food
stores— who slock them shelled and
ready-to-use.
The made-front-scratch biscuits
arc now being offered in moat of the
Portland KFC stores but only the lo-
cation at. 5271 N .E . Union has the
special segment menu

Millet ranks high
Millet is the first of the seed cer­
eals that should be on your table
regularly.
Little known in this country, ex­
cept as poultry and animal feed,
millet has been one of the principal
grains o f Eastern Europe, A frica,
Siberia and China for centuries.
Laboratory investigations have
revealed that no food is digested
with as great ease as millet. It does
not ferment in the stomach, causing
digestive and intestinal distress, as
do foods made from white flour and
other devitalized grains.
A fter W orld W ar I, millions of
peasants in While Russia faced star­
vation. In desperation, they ate the
millet which had been put away for
the chickens they no longer had.
And what happened? Not only
did these peasants survive the long
period of famine, but they soon dis­
covered they were enjoying better
health than they had ever known
while consuming their former varied
diets.
The completeness and high
quality of the protein in millet make
it possible for your body to be well
supplied with essential amino acids,
even though little or no other pro­
tein foods are eaten.
Starch is never a safe substitute
for protein.
The only foods which should ever
appear in the menu as honest substi­
tutes for a meat dish are eggs,
cheese, milk and high-protein seed
cereals. By adding extra amounts of
dry skim milk to these protein meat
substitutes, a meatless diet can be
within the safe daily minimum of
100 to ISO grams of protein.
Now don't get the idea that I'm
recommending that you do away
with meat in your diet, and substi­
tute millet. Meat is an unexcelled,
hard-to-replace food, but there are
thousands o f persons living on in­
comes that won't permit their pur­
chasing meat every day in the week.
For that reason, I believe that more
recognition should be given to millet
(sunflower seeds, too) as a n u tri­
tionally safe, low-cost, easily diges­
tible meat substitute.

Sunflower seeds rich
Sunflower seeds are another high­
ly nutritious seed food that we sup­
ply generously to parrots and chick­
ens, yet neglect to utilize in raising
the standards of our under-par hu­
man diets.
Back in the days of the czars, ev­
ery Russian soldier in the field was
given his daily “ iron ra tio n ’ ’ — a
two-pound bag of sunflower seeds.
Because the army away from its
supply bases was sometimes forced
to live exclusively on these seeds, the
officers furnished their men with
this tasty, lightweight food knowing
that it gave them all the nourish­
ment needed to keep them in good
condition. Besides the protein, vita­
mins and other minerals, two
pounds of sunflower seeds contain
about 2 1 milligrams of iron.
The average grown man requires
at least 12 milligrams o f iron each
day for optimum health, while the
average woman needs a minimum of
IS milligrams.
