A consumer should always be careful in buying fruits and vegetables from peddlers, If she does not see what she is buying, she can be getting poor quality produce and in the long run it will be more expensive than buying from a retail outlet in the town or village. QUESTION; Sometimes the supermarkets do not mark the number of bananas in a bunch although the weight and price are clearly stated. If I am in doubt about the weight, should I ask for a re-check? ANSWER: Yes, by all means. It is often wise to ask for a re-weighing of any items, i.e. 10 lb. bag of potatoes. QUESTION: How can one know what ingredients are in bread and is supermarket "bargain" bread of first quality? ANSWER: Food and Drug Regulations list a standard composition for bread both "enriched and unenriched". Most bread today is enriched and if labelled as such it must contain vitamin 13 enriched flour plus 2% milk solids. Any permitted chemical additions are listed in the Food and Drug Regulations and are added tinder strict supervision. They are chosen to provide a product with better quality and keeping qualities, and are not allowed if there is intent to fraud or deceive, The list may be obtained by writing to the Food and Drug Directorate, Department of National Health and Welfare, 55 St. Clair Ave. East, Toronto 290, Ont. Any "bargain bread" must conform to these standards and therefore will be a safe wholesome product. Because consumers must purchase bread regularly, it is frequently offered at "bargain" prices at supermarkets. QUESTION: Why are the inside of the lids of baby food jars, (especially meats) often dry and scummy? ANSWER: All meats used for baby food tend to be of a reasonably dry consistency. During the processing of the baby food, it is possible that some of the meat broth may spatter the lid of the jar, When the lid is removed, or the meat settles this broth dries in the air, with a dry, scummy appearance. However, the meat is still sterile, safe and wholesome. QUESTION: I have never asked to have food packaged in an expensive manner, yet, I am told that I demand these services. Why is it not possible to dispense with the fancy packaging and lower the price of food accordingly? ANSWER: Unfortunately, fancy packaging has proven a popular tool in the very highly competitive food industry. New packages create new images for older food commodities, highly decorative containers carry strong sales appeal, and sell themselves directly from shelf to consumer. It is true we consumers have not demanded these costly packages. In a great many cases however we have shown our approval of them by selecting these rather than the plainer ones. As long as the cash register rings up our "votes" for these however, Food Processors and manufacturers will continue to offer the more elaborate expensive packages. Certain staples may still be purchased in plain wrappings at a small saving. Here's a quick dessert idea. Fill canned freestone peach halves with sour cream, sprinkle with brown sugar, and add a touch of cinnamon if desired. Then brown under the broiler and serve warm. When the ladies come in for bridge or it's your turn to serve dessert and coffee at the monthly meeting, spoil your guests with Individual Baked Peach Alaska. Top 1-inch cake slices OR jelly roll slices OR meringue shells with a freestone peach half. Fill with ice cream. Spread with meringue and bake at 425 degrees F until browned. Serve topped with chopped peaches and frozen raspberries, if desired. * * Here's the recipe for another beef stretcher. It can be made in advance and frozen, ready to pop into the oven when needed.

While they are having fun, they encounter built-in hazards. Hindsight is too late! Foresight is prevention! In so many ways, children are exposed to injuries in their play hours. Who has not heard of the daring youngster who fell out of a tree? Or of the child who darted across a busy street after a bouncing ball and caught a fender? Or the exuberent little explorer who wedged himself in a narrow opening? For their self-protection, children should be taught the fundamental rules of safety. Education starts from the moment the baby crawls. The child is having an orgy of discovery day by day. He will taste, touch and test everything within reach. Teach the child obedience, the child specialists say. Try the old-fashioned way of disciplines. Use the voice to command attention. The child will get to recognize firmness and that you mean business when you say "no!" and "stop!" Even a crawling baby has a built-in antenna and will lift the head and listen to you when reaching for the forbidden! The shock of a swat is approved discipline too! Discipline is a safety tool! Teach by example. When forbidding a boy to ,climb on a fence where there is poison ivy or barbed wire, or on a tree with unsafe branches, a father needs to show a fence or a tree that is safe to climb,. Climbing is all right, the lesson says, but one must choose the right places to climb. Playtime equipment for the backyard includes swings, slides, climbing bars and sand-boxes, When you arc buying them, give a thought to their construction to ensure safety.
