Milk Made Desserts Cut Sugar Use in War Diets
Alice M. Cooley of the National Dairy Council urges homemakers to use milk based desserts to save sugar points. Vary custards and puddings with honey, add milk to packaged mixes, chill fillings, and serve between cake layers or in pies to stretch limited sugar and milk rations while pleasing families. Sugar rationing may persist after the war, making these milk heavy desserts practical and economical.
