levels and food consumption pa -
terns
terns during the last 20 years is
revealed by com arison of 193,5-39
averages with 1955-57 averages.
Disposable income per person
increased almost four times from
$339 to $1,286, while the consumer
price ,index doubled.
The average Canadian s till
sl?ends About 25 per cent of his
disposable income onfood as .he
did in pre-war years, but, with
his increased earnings, his tases
have turned toward more variety
and higher quality in the menu.
There has ,been a deli nite shift
in food consumption patterns to -1
ward more expensive classes of
food and food already prepared.
Cereal products, potatoes • and
sugar are considered low-cost
sources of food energy. Popularity

sagged greatly. In 1935-39, annual
consumption of cereal products
was about 206 pounds per person.
In 1955-57, it was 160 Similarly,
potato consumption slipped from
192 to 154 pounds.
Because Canadians today- are
eating- less bread and potatoes,
consumption of butter and marg-
arine in _the 1955-57 rprinil was 28
pounds per person — 2,6 Bounds
less than consumption of butter
alone in 1935-39.
Milk, Egg Stable
;Milk;' eggs and meat are the
principal. animal protein foods and
are considered' important from the
nutritional viewpoint. While con-
sumption of milk and eggs was
fairly stable, there were sharp in-
creases in consumption.., of red
meat and poultry meat..
From an average of 118 pounds
per person in 1935-39, red meat
rose to 141 pounds in 195557.
Poultry consumption soared from
18 to 31 pounds.

are relatively high-cost sources of
both • food' energy and protein. .
Consumption of vegetables, other
than potatoes and tomatoes, in-
creased from 78 to 101 pounds.
But the. meteor -like rise in con-
sumption of fruits and tomatoes
from 139 •to 239 pounds per per-
