Excerpt from Food for Young Children A little child who is carefully fed in accordance with his bodily needs (as these are now understood) receives every day at least one food each of the following groups: 1. Milk and dishes made chiefly of milk (most important of the group as regards children's diet), meat, fish, poultry, eggs, and meat substitutes. 2. Bread and other cereal foods. 3. Butter and other wholesome fats. 4. Vegetables and fruits. 5. Simple sweets. In the pictures of a day's meals (breakfast, dinner, and supper) shown in this bulletin each of these groups is represented by a food which is suitable for a little child, each food being numbered to indicate the group to which it belongs. The purpose is to show a day's ration containing enough different kinds of foods to meet all the child's needs. The size of the portions would, of course, depend on the child's age. With usual quantities served the meals should be sufficient. Many other meals might have been shown, for there is no food in the pictures, except milk, which could not have been replaced by some other wholesome food. Milk, if it can be procured, should form part of the food of every child, except when for some special reason the doctor objects, and this he seldom does.
