“Everyday Foods in War Time” was written during the time of food rationing during the WW2 years. This book gives the homemaker at the time a lot of good advice about saving money as well as providing good nutrition for her family. It''s fascinating to read about meat being 10 cents a pound and dry fruits being cheaper than fresh! And learning that potatoes and bananas are nutritionally similar! Who would ever imagine serving fried or baked bananas on a bed of white rice?
