GENERAL SUGAR CONSERVATION
Is sugar necessary in the diet?

Is sugar necessary in the diet?
Neither cane nor beet sugar is necessary. In the
average American diet allthesugar needed may ordi
narily be supplied by using honey, sirups, fresh pre-
served and dried fruits
What are the general sugar saving rues7
Use all sugar sparingly and wherever possible use
other sweeteners. Be sparing of confections and
sweet cakes The American people last year spent
enough money for candy to feed all Belgium two
years Supplement sugar with honey and sirups
Cultivate taste for fruit in it's natural sweetness
Sugar is fuel food Get fuel from potatoes and
other starchy foods rather than from sugar. Sugar
exces them energy-food only because it pro-
duces energy more quickly. They excel sugar since
they supply more than merely the fuel need
How may the sugar ration be expressed quantities
known to everyone?
Two pounds per month about ounces per
week. or little than l ounce day. This daily
ration is trife more than tablespoons level full
1t should be remembered that this is to include all
sugar used for any purpose whatsoever-for table
use, cooking, in ice and desserts on cereals or
fruit in sugar sirups used on griddle cakes, etc.
