But now that milk supplies are being restricted, you may have to make up the decrease in milk (the best known source of calcium) in the diet by using extra quantities of calcium rich foods. Whole grain or enriched cereals and breads are good calcium foods. So are soy and wheat flour products if they contain at least 15 per cent of the soy flour.

But do not make the mistake of thinking that soy flour products, can take the place of whole grain foods. Both are needed nutritionally. Here are some calcium rich breakfast menus. Egg yolks are rich in calcium. Therefore, use them liberally in the war worker's breakfast.

Morning Menus Grapefruit juice, enriched corn flakes, sliced bananas if available, milk, sugar, fried eggs and thin slices of ham, hot enriched Par kerhouse rolls, butter or fortified margarine, coffee, milk. Cooked wheat cereal with cooked prunes and whole milk, poached egg, buttered enriched toast, honey, coffee or milk. Orange juice, mixed puffed cereal and bran, whole milk, sugar, hot waffles (soy flour), butter or forllifled margarine, fruit preserves. Holy Ilame Men Of St. Rocco's Plan A Social Members of St.
