And only 11.2 per cent of the women who actually read the lists on food containers knew their significance. Federal law requires that the ingredients in non-standard food preparations, such as macaroni and cheese or lobster newbui a, be listed in or der of their importance in the recipe. The listings are based on the weight of the food as packaged not Hie ingredient weights be fore processing. Such laws are designed to protect consumers from poor quality products. Some women questioned in the two-city study said they thought ingredients were listed alphabet ically. Some thought manufac turers ranked ingredients in the order in which they wanted con sumers to see them. "Strange Chemicals" A few said they read the lists only tu watch for strange chemi cals or artificial flavors. And only a handful of those who read the lists to determine which foods offered the best value actually knew that the or der of ingredients was dictated by federal law.

First, a few words about breakfast. Everyone, factory workers, office workers, home makers, school children, teen agers, grandparents, needs one. And it should provide from one fourth to one-third of the day's total caloric requirements. An easy-to-follow breakfast pattern contains fruit, cereals with milk, eggs, bread and butter and milk. The quantity of each can be adapted to the size and activity of the individual, but the kinds of foods needed are the same for all. Now, f o r suggestions on streamlining breakfast service when the first customer appears at 7 and the last one disappears at 9. Try to do some of the prepa ration on the night before or at least know exactly what you are going to serve. Early morning indecision can steal many pre cious minutes. If the breakfast table isn't used during the eve ning, it can be completely set the night before. Morning Menu When the morning's menu contains grapefruit halves or orange slices, prepare them the night before, cover and refrig erate. They will be all ready to serve in the morning. Arranging them on the table can be a job for your early morning helper. Hot cereals can be cooked in milk in the top part of a double boiler. Cooking time done, keep the cereal hot over water in the double boiler for late-comers. It everyone likes a different topping on cereal, put all the favorites on the table and make it self service. This approach will save running to the refrig erator for the jam that junior likes, the cupboard to get the brown sugar for father and the honey for sister. Even breakfast items that are considered fussy, such as pan cakes, can be made on busy mornings when handled right. To eliminate standing over the griddle each time another per son appears, make the pancakes and keep them hot by placing them between folds of a warm towel in a warm oven. Do be careful not to stack them. Buffet Service Buffet service is popular at dinner. The homemaker who GOOD AS 2VEVT RAUXEASE CAX MAKE ITS) serves breakfast in shifts should realize how valuable this type of service can be in the morn ing, too. A buffet breakfast could con sist of a pitcher of juice, a sel ection of ready-to-eat cereals with two or three fruits from which the family can choose, bread next to the toaster with butter and jelly near by and a large pitcher of milk. This is a nutritious breakfast and one to which everyone can help him self, taking the amount of food needed for his age and activity. On week end mornings when there is more time and everyone eats together, treat the family to more elaborate fare. A menu for this meal could be mandarin orange sections, a fluffy omelet with strawberry jam, Canadian bacon, hot muffins, butter and milk. If your family is used to being waited on, it may take a little training to tell them that self service is being introduced at breakfast. But with foresighted planning on your part and the family's help, that kinship to a short order cook can disap pear. Try it and see!
