Then the pilot quickly returns to-

Grape Paste.
Leftover Cereals.

Remnants of cereal breakfast foods
may often be utilized to make pala-
table dishes, to thicken soups or other
foods, and in similar ways. Small
quantities of cooked cereal left over
from a meal can be nodded in cups
and reheated for later use by setting
the cups in boiling water. Another
way to economize cereal mushes is to
add hot water to any mush left over
so as to make it very thin It can
then easily be added to a new supply.
The practice of frying the left-overs of
boiled holniny or of cornmeal mush
Is as old as the settlement of this
country, and the nursery song about
the bag pudding the queen did make"
from King Arthur's barley meal shows
US that for centuries other cereal pud-
dings have been treated in the same
way. In oatmeal oysters, leftover
cereal is dipped in eggs and crumbs
and fried. Leftover rice and other
cereals are commonly used in cro-
quotes and buildings
