STRICTLY FOR MEN

March is Nutrition Month.

The starving half of the
world must view with
puzzled amazement a
country loaded food in silos,
storehouses and = super-
markets that has a govern-
ment promouon to persuade
ils people to eat better!
What an anomaly'

We eat the best of
everything and constantly
fuss about “going on a diet”.
Its a problem a lot of other
countries would like to have.

There is at hand a product
that will rescue us from our
dilemma -- itis very cheap, it
has impressive properties, it
is no pmnma donna and will
take cheerfully to the
company of other foods.
Ladies and Gentlemen, |
nominate Tofu as Queen of
the Nutrition Parade.

Tofu had held this ttle in
Asia for many years -- there.
they call it “meat without a
bone”, or “meat that grows
ona vine”. It looks ike aging
putty, and useless to boot,
but be not deceived. Therein
lurks food value of

It's readily available in the
vegetable section of a lot of
supermarkets, but is mostly
vacuum-packed and I find it
somewhat leathery. It is
better uf stored in water -- it
stays fresher and is tender
and custardy. You can go

Spicing up the veg

It is a challenge to cook a
good meal and not have your

My favonte way to use 1U15s
in broth with one or more
vegetables, perhaps some
Japanese style noodles, the
tofu cut into cubes and all
heated together. This is a
simple, highly digesuble,
cheap and filling supper.
You can sautee the cubes
and toss them with your next
sur-fry: they mash = and
blender willingly into meat-
loaf, scrambled eggs, salad
dressings and dips.

Asiatic people, who have
known about soy bean curd’s
excellence for hundreds of
years, say u is good for
young and old, and that “it
makes a poor diet good and
a good diet better”. Show
Tofu you care. (You can
even buy a Tofu mix, an fix
your own!).
