Vitamins are still important, but the spotlight if interest has moved away from them. Now_ it is shedding its glamorous light on the food element called protein. Now protein is having its turn at getting attention. This is a good thing, too. Protein’ is important in many ‘ways: It is the body builder among the food elements that are necessary for all life. Even “plant growers are concerned soil, say about these protein. specialists The must provide the growing plant with protein-making elements. Otherwise the plants do not make the best food, ‘either for animals or for human beings. : Almost all foods contain some protein. Some _ foods, such as fruits, contain only small amounts, others, such as meat and eggs, contain large amounts. Still others, like; wheat and oatmeal and corn, contain generous amounts. Proteins are different in quality, Those in plant foods, such as wheat or beans or peas, are good. They are also the most economi cal. Those in animal foods, and were truly astonished diet of that body-building food ‘substance, protein. That is worth keeping in mind these days when most other protein-supplying foods are making the food budget hard to manage. A fine example of this deliéious kind of food economy is* Macaroni Vegetable Medley. This is a meal-in-a-dish.
