Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect.

Ration Books. I don't remember them, although rationing was still around until 1955, hence the malt and vitamin supplied for children. (posted yesterday) No wonder everyone was slim ! ![[Linked Image]](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c1/Sample_UK_Childs_Ration_Book_WW2.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://www.primaryhomeworkhelp.co.uk/war/images/august/page.jpg) The weekly ration varied from month to month as foods became more or less plentiful. A typical ration for one adult per week was: Butter: 50g (2oz) Bacon and ham: 100g (4oz) Margarine: 100g (4oz) Sugar: 225g (8oz). Meat: To the value of 1s.2d (one shilling and sixpence per week. That is about 6p today) Milk: 3 pints (1800ml) occasionally dropping to 2 pints (1200ml). Cheese: 2oz (50g) Eggs: 1 fresh egg a week. Tea: 50g (2oz). Jam: 450g (1lb) every two months. Dried eggs 1 packet every four weeks. Sweets: 350g (12oz) every four weeks ![[Linked Image]](https://bp0.blogger.com/__qzX-0fL9Js/R9gnLzvfABI/AAAAAAAACPs/YgHs_SeTJ9E/s400/ration+feie+cloth.JPG) http://www.primaryhomeworkhelp.co.uk/war/rationing2.html
