Feeding the Family
By ZOLA VINCENT
Food Editor
Ways to Wage War
on Food Waste Given
Right now while resolutions
arc running high Is the time
to think it through; to sit
quietly and read the score or
so of economy-wise food hints
that we've carefully assem
bled for you.
If you're trying your best
as who isn't, to balance the
budget after the gay abandon
of December shopping, here
are ways to wage war on food
waste, get far more for your
money.
Reflect well also on the
fact that you can feed your
family adequately without re
sorting to costly food fads.
Leading nutritionists debunk
fad diets, declare that many
of them are not only useless,
a waste of money, but may
be dangerous as well when
followed for a long time. If
you've a weight or health
problem, your family doctor
is the person to consult, not
friends nor pamphlets nor
books by food faddists. .
E. W. Henry, Ph. D, says In
his book Food Without Fads,
"Perhaps the main harm done
by following a fad diet is that
people are prevented from
eating good meals". Often the
rest of the family suffers
when a parent goes on a foods
"kick". .

Avoid Wasteful Ways
Waste begins with selection
of food and carries right on
through improper storage and
use of leftovers. Consider the
prodigal amount of fat wasted
through improper storage.
Leftover fats and drop
pings are good food and can
be used again but they must
be slurcd in a dry, cold, dark
place. Lett op range, they
grow rancid, spoil flavor of
other loods to which they are
added.
There's waste In foods
that are carelessly prepared
and so turn out to be failures.
Careful measuring according
to recipe or package direc
tions can make the difference
between a dish or a cake thai
is thoroughly enjoyed or only
half eaten.
When meat is Improperly
cooked, alloved to brown
overly much or cooked at too
high a temperature, it shrinks
more man necessary, gives
lower servings per pound.
To preserve best flavors
of leftovers, heal them tho
roughly but do not cook the
food again.
L.cai vcgeianies such as
tops of beets or turnips, csca-
role, kale, spinach, collards
arc all approximately equal
in food value. Use whichever
Is available at lowest price.
Sweet potatoes and
vhlle potatoes mav be used

toes usually are the better buy
but sweets are a special treat

Odd bits of ' tomatoes,
green onions, green peppers,
celery and parsley can be de
pended upon to add new fla
vor and interest as well as
bulk and nourishment to left
overs.
Check refrigerator and
bread box each morning;
otherwise you may be amazed
at what you find lurking
there a few days hence.
Fruits and vegetables,
being perishable, should be
bought only in reasonable
quantities and with apprecia
tion of refrigeration and stor
age space. They should be
examined carefully for spots
and bruises that tend toward
decay. Almost any part of a
vegetable can be salvaged
and will add nutritive value
as well as flavor to soup
stock.
Waste of milk can be
avoided by utilizing sour milk
or cream in many delicious
ways such as biscuits, pan
cakes, shortcakes, muffins
among dozens of good things.
Fish and poultry arc espe
cially plentiful in our area;
comparatively inexpensive,
might well appear in menus
more often.
Dried fruit and dried
beans and peas which have
been soaked for several hours
or overnight require less
cooking; are packed with fine
nutrients, good flavors. They
should be cooked in the wat
er in which Ihcy-are soaked,
retaining all those good
health values. .
Macaroni products arc
perhaps the most versatile
and economical of foods;
make a fine meal when sim
ply buttered, added to cream
or cheese sauce. They com
bine well with practically any
other food for enjoyment hot,
or cold in salads.
Planned-overs save time,
money and energy. One day's
good eating often makes an
even better meal when new
seasonings are added for pep-ping-up
purposes.

Pepper Steak Will Bring
Joy to January Appetites
Ah, the deep good taste of
red meat after the richness of
holiday foods. Add to the taste
of steak, the zest of the
world's . favorite spice and
that would be black pepper!
No matter what weird and
wonderful foods the peoples
of the earth call dinner, it
tastes better for a shake of
pepper.
Treat the family to a new
pepper shaker. Most pepper
shakers on today's tables are
out-of-date due to the ever in
creasing popularity of coarser
grains of pepper for more
aroma and tang. Shake coarse
black pepper from a salt
shaker If you've no pepper
mill handy.
This steak is worthy of part
of that Christmas check. Eight
generous servings. And
simply divine if you're lucky
enough to have some left over
for serving cold.
