SOAKED DRIED PEAS AND En-
LIMA BEANS BEING CANNE0s

Washington, Oct THE officials
In charge of the enforcement of ths
food and drugs act are again calling
dried peas and dried lima beans until
they have the appearance OF the fresh
article and then canning them. Such
products are then in many instances
sold as the canned fresh article. Un.s
less soaked peas and lima beans ar0
plainly labeled as soaked" or in some
other manner so as TO show their chars.
acter, they are regarded as in violation
of the food and drugs act.
There is no denial that soaked peas
and lima beans are wholesome arti-
Gle of food. They are. however, adj
mittedly inferior in quality to the pros
ducts prepared from the fresh vege-
tables. Furth ermore, the dried peas
or beans may themselves be purchased
by the housewife quite cheaply and
while In the dried condition may bs
commercially and satisfactorily stored,
for future use.
The housewife will also do her bit
ply Of tin plate by soaking and cook.
ing her own dried peas and lima beans
in the kitchen and thereby releasing
a proportional amount of tin cans for.
use in the packing of perishable foods
where they are greatly needed.
Consumers are urged to read labels
of canned peas and lima beans care-
fully in order to see whether or not
they are getting a fresh or soaked
dried product.
