Six years ago the New York Women’s Advertising Club sponsored a survey, “What’s your Neighbour’s purpose was to find out in tail the eating habits of major nationality groups in country, evaluate them tionally, discover how they are affected by rationing and emer­ gencies, and suggest ways in which the American-born house­ wife and foreign-origan house­ wife might profit from each other’s knowledge. The results are amazing: Ac­ tually food does not conform to any political boundary. The earth is divided into great re­ gions in which all the inhabi­ tants have certain similarities of food habits. If cooking cus­ toms vary, at least the basic foods are similar. The different flavour and consistency of these foods with strange for us the most features. In normal -times, people eat light breakfasts (a piece of bread, some fruit or a bit of cheese, and coffee which is thick and sweet); afternoon dinners of bread, a casserole dish, olives, fruit, nuts, cheese, a salad with olive oil and vine­ gar, and wine; and -supper of similar pattern. Most Greek main dishes begin with onions cooked in oil, then the other ingredients are added. Bread is the most important single staple food—so much that many eat a mouthful bread in between each bite. The foods that are eaten Norway, Sweden and Denmark are rather similar in character, although varying amounts of the same foods are eaten in each, of the same countries. In Nor­ way, more fish is consumed— fresh, dried or salted, while in Sweden, much sugar is used in cooking. Denmark is a dairying country and uses much cheese, cow’s milk and butter. The liberal use of legumes and cheese makes up for the small amount of meat served in French and Italian dishes. Soups and rich sauces are made inex­ pensively with meat drippings, leftovers and purees of any surplus foods. Many French and Italian men are excellent at home and skill. Latin people deal of respect ___r. ___ come by it with great toil and therefore make a ritual of many meals. Feast days and family occasions are celebrated with certain dishes—for example, an artichoke pie for Easter-time.
