I downloaded this the other night when I was looking for world history books. It was a great little read. It had all kinds of ideas on stretching butter, using fats and leftovers. It's got recipes for flourless and meatless days. It also tells how much of different items are wasted and could be saved by cutting back x amount for each person. It mentions acid stomach can be caused by too much sugar and that kids need whole milk and as many or more calories than a man depending on age. (Good foods of course.) Much different from what you hear from the government today. It also tells how oleo came about.

Thanks, Windborn. I saw this one the other night when I was doing another marathon downloading of FREE books. But I don't think I grabbed it. I'll go do that now. Sounds like good ideas in Hard Times. From the mouths of those who went thru it.
