include in every three-meals-a day
plenty Of fruits and vegetables
(some raw and some cookedD milk,
eggs. and other dairy products,
whole grain cereals, enriched white
or whole wheat bread, and meat or
other protein foods. such as flsh.
fowl. peas, beans, and lentilS.
SANDWICHES AND FRUIT
With careful planning. many OF
these foods can be included in the
school lunch box. Sandwiches, for
example. which are still the main
stay of every lunch box, can con-
tribute many important foods to
the menus, especially IL they are
prepared from slices of enriched
white or whole wheat bread, which
add important B vitaminS and iron
to the diet, and spread with butter
or vitamin fortified margarine.
There are literally dozens Of
sandwich filings in the realm OF
important foods which children
can find appealing. Peanut butter,
chopped hard cooked eggs. meat.
fish. fowl, cheese, and even ground
dried fruits moistened with fruit
Juice or mayonnaise. Grated raw
carrots, watercreSs, chopped cell
cry shredded cabbage. and men,
bers of the lettuce family add raw
vegetables to the menu.
Fruits can be carried as fresh
raw fruits. as fruit Juice in a Their
mos bottle, or as canned or stewed
dried fruit in little jars with snug
fitting caps. The thermos jug also
comes in handy for milk or hot
SOUP il the weather is cold. Salads
or buildings can also be packed in
the lunch box in little jars with
tight fitting caps.
MILK MADE INTERESTING
To make eating from lunch
box day after day an interesting
adventure. work the charm OF vari-
ETY. in menus. and prepare and
wrap the foods carefully so they
will have eye as well as palate
appeal.
Here are a few ideas for branch
ing out from the standard lunch
box formula which will help keep
youngsters interested. II milk be-
gins to pail as an everyday Occu-
pant of the thermos bottle. bring 1t
into the menu as smooth baked
custard. a chocolate. vanilla. or
butterscotch pudding, or a creamy
rice pudding, or plain or fruited
tapioca cream. Small jelly jars
with tight-fitting lids are excellent
containers for these milk desserts.
This gives you chance to f1ll the
thermos bottle with one OF those
refreshing fruit juices that add i'm
portant vitamins 81 and c to the
daily diet. The sun-ripened flavor
of canned unsweetened pineapple
juice from Hawaii. for example. is
a favorite beverage with the young
fry and tastes mighty good with
lunch box sandwiches.
