| LOUISA'S LETTER 1

Dear Louisa. Years ago my mother wrote you a letter complaining about being a doormat for the family. Sht said that while some women enyoued being a martyr to the family and aacrificing for the family she was fed up with giving up all of her plans so that the husband and children could do what they wished while she stayed at home and kept the home fires burning. When we read that letter my sister and I were burned up. We thought that mother was a very unnatural mother because we took everything she did for us for granted and we thought that was what mothers were made for. But have 1 changed my mind! Since I have children of my own I have made it clear that the things 1 wish to do are just as important as

those of any other member of the family. The odd thing about it is that my children seem to love and respect me more than we did our mother when we were growing up. Isn't it strange that they should feel that way? So my advice to mothers is to love their children and do for them but don’t be a doormat for the family. G.8.-NJ. Answer: Members of a family who impose on another member usually have guilt feelings about it and resent feeling that way. They fight such moods by being disrespectful and accusing the martyr of being selfish. Louisa Address: Louisa, Box 532., Orangeburg, S. C. 29115

Competition for food dollars

By PATRICIA M. RATHBUN Extension Home Economist The competition for food dollars has increased greatly over the past few years with supermarkets trying to lure more customers with features suth as bakeries, coupons, and delis while the food industry touts fast courteous service witheverything from drive-thru windows to discount coupons. As lifestyles change, time for food preparation and clean-up changes, also. There are three times as many food service establishments as grocery stores — 9.000 commercial restaurants in Indiana The average American eats away from home 6.4 times in a typical week. More than $1 out of every $3 spent for food is spent for food eaten away from home. Eating out is on the increase as lifestyles continue to change. Trends that indicate this increase are smaller households, more women working, more people living alone. . The greater consumption of eaten out foods vs eaten in, particularly fast foods, has encouraged a trend toward a diet composed of relatively few different foods. Consumption of s.potatoes (french fries), catsup, pickles, fish, beef and ice milk have all increased over the past 15 years. Typical fast-food meals are generally high in calories, ranging from 900-1.200 calories. Beverages contribute to the abundance of calories if they’re the cola type which contain no nutrients. Milk shakes add about 300 calories and contribute nutrients only if they’re made of dairy products. Many so-called "thick shakes" are made of chemicals. sweeteners and thickeners. Nutrition is important regardless of eating in or out Each meal should provide l <- 1 3 of the nutritional requirements needed daily. A nutritional analysis of a typical fast-food meal reveals (1) t adequate amounts of protein — 25-72 grams; (2) vitamin A content generally low; (3) fiber content tends to be very low (4) provides approximately of the RDA for thiamin, niacin, vitamins C, 812, and D; (5) sodium content extremely high; (6) cholesterol and fat is high, (7) calcium is available in the form of milk and milk shakes. A burger and fries meal can fit into a good, nutritious diet, if deficiencies are made up for in other meals during the day. Include a citrus fruit for vitamin C, dark green or yellow vegetables for vitamin A, fiber sources such as fresh fruits, whole grain breads, and milk or cheese for calcium. It has been proposed that one reason for the popularity and increased consumption of fast foods is that they are so 55th anniversary for T. R. Brooks Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Brooks.

economical. Comparisons of the cost of fast foods by USDA indicate that restaurant fast food costs approximately twice as much as similar foods prepared at home. But the "at-home” cost in the study did not consider labor costs, overhead and operating costs, fuel costs, cost equivalent of shopping and food preparation time The problem of cost is an extremely difficult one to analyze from the conventional standpoint. When comparing the menu price with "raw food price” (the cost to buy equivalent ingredients), eating at home will alUays be a savings. One needs to look at the who, what, when, where and how questions. Are we talking about a family, single person or household? Is it breakfast, lunch or dinner? \yhat kind of food — gourmet, fast food, special dishes? Perhaps cost isn’t and/or shouldn’t be the. most important factor. We choose to eat in or out based on a number of factors. Whether that’s good for us nutritionally and economically depends upon • our knowledge and the kind of choices we make.
