AS Samuel Barton, an official

when I called to check on re-

impossible to overestimate the
Importance of the surveys re-

ice connected with food in any
way will find information that
will vitality affect its old and

Changes indicated
For instance If the kitchen
is the social as well as the work
center Of the home-as these
statistics e m phi a size-then
many notions about what we
prefer,in kitchen layouts may
need d complete overhaul. And
much of the talk these days
that the American public is
dem a n ding "stripped-down"
appliances may be superficial
nonsense.
Or consider the revelations
about leftovers and snacks.
Surely. these disclosures in
dictate that the size of many
food packages can be vastly i'm
proved to cut down on leftovers,
that there is considerable room
for the creation of new recipes
based on leftovers, that there
are golden opportunities for
food professors in the late
evening snack area.
When the full results of the
survey are known they well
may lead to revolutions in the
design of kitchens and ap-
planes.

Your Food Habits

If you're a typical, you eat
most of your meals in the
Kitchen. Seventy per cent of all
home meals are served in the
Kitchen.
If you're typical family in
any income bracket, you have
guests at approximately one OF
seven meals you eat at home.
If you're an average family,
you enjoy an impressive variety
IN your menus. The average
family serves As different dishes
over a two-week period, and
over a longer time the average
family serves about rs dishes.
If your menus follow the
same pattern as those of most
of us, leftovers play a tremen-
dous part in your meals day
after day. . If you have chill
dren near or in their teens,
you're more apt to be baking
cakes from scratch than using
cake mixes, and thus you're
likely to be developing in your
children a revived interest in
baking from scratch.
