Beefsteak Corn Bice White Bread Corn Bread . The one big. event which has established candy as a food is this tremendous war. This war has put everything to the acid test and only that which is fit survives. For instance, there was a time when rum and whiskey were thought to supply the ideal bodily fuel. But xodav the acid tosVof war has proven beyond a doubt that akohol is a thing of the past as a food product. v On the other hand, candy, which went into the war practically unrecognized, lias come to the front as a food of tremendous value, and something which is very, very essential to the soldier- The British army reports fliat its soldiers- in France have requir ed five times the amount of candy that was expected. A constant stream of candy, aggregating many tons, is going regularly to our own soldiers in France while thousands of pounds are used weekly by the boys in training camps in this country. . That is because candy supplies a normal' raving for something sweet to supply the bodily need for carbohydrates (fuel for the sys tem).
