Synopsis
Excerpt from The Dietary Computer, Explanatory Pamphlet: The Pamphlet Containing Tables of Food Composition, Lists of Prices Weights, and Measures, Selected Recipes for the Slips, Directions for Using the Same
The aim of this little pamphlet is to familiarize settlement workers and progressive housewives with a few fundamental principles used in making out bills of fare according to food values. Not that the cook's art is not also essential, but that it is another matter. It can make savory these valuable food materials, but it cannot make one pound of potato worth as much for nutrition as one pound of rice, or one pound of sugar or of fat to yield the nitrogen which is found in meats and legumes.
