OSU Runs Tests On Wheat Wafers For Food Use Oregon State University stu dents will help evaluate special whole wheat crackers that Ore gon families may some day find useful in an emergency. Work will be started this win ter at OSU to evaluate 16 whole wheat wafer recipes developed D.y tne u. s. Department ot Agri culture as survival rations for fall out shelters. An $88,000 grant will be used over the next five years to conduct the study. Basically, wafers are made from whole wheat, fat, dry malt extract and salt. Lightly toasted during processing, they're flaky and rice-like in texture. A vers atile food, they can be topped with milk and eaten as cereal, eaten with soup, or can be spread with jam or peanut but ter for sandwiches. Dry wheat wafers are quickly heated by topping with a hot meat sauce or gravy. Big advantage of the wafers is that they satisfy needs and tastes of most people. If allow ed to stand in milk, wafers be come mushy enough for the toothless to enjoy. Variations of the basic water recipe include added cheese, fruit, bacon bits and powdered milk. Wafers will be stored at 24 7(J, and 100 degrees F. temper ature for tive years. Students will test for flavor every six months during the five-year stor age period. OSU workers also will examine crackers chem ically tor flavor breakdown. All wheat wafers used in OSU tests will be sent from the USDA Western Utilization Research Laboratory in Albany, Calif Wafers are packed in sealed cans during storage.

Thursday, December 20. 1962 foods that fit survival require ments must suit all age groups, be palatable, require little prep aration space, be cheap, easy to serve, and fairly low in protein. They must be packaged to re main intact in unfavorable at- mospheres and be impervious to possible attack by rodents, in sects and mold. Although developed as sur vival rations, whole wheat wa fers might also be used by hikers and mountain climbers to en rich diets of people in other parts of the world, it was noted. Wafer recipes might also provide new outlets for other grains corn, rye, rice, barley and oats. It pays to advertise in the Gazette-Times.
