Abstract

Foodnational dietary standardsis a sensitive index of socioeconomic conditions generally there are others, reflecting different aspects, but none more sensitive. A country that eats well has healthy, robust people the housewife who cooks hearty, nourishing meals has a lusty, virile family. It is not surprising, therefore, that all governments of the world have a food policy, ranking high in its priorities and are usually prepared to sacrifice other national policies to preserve it. Before the last war, when food was much less of an instrument of government policy than nowthere were not the shortages or the price vagariesin France, any government, whatever its colour, which could not keep down the price of food so that the poor man ate his fill, never survived long it wasto make use of the call sign of those untidy, shambling columns from our streets which seem to monopolize the television news screensout Lovers of the Old France would say that the country had been without stable government since 1870, but the explanation for the many changes in power in France in those prewar days could be expressed in one wordfood
