Food Facts No.67 Point rationing for a number of foods

1 Jan 1941

139 POINT RATIONING FOR A NUMBER OF FOODS On November 17 the Ministry of Food will begin a great "fair-shares" scheme for helping the housewife. It will put some valuable new foods into the market, and bring back others. Better still, the scheme will ensure that they are shared out fairly. It will give the housewife who goes to work a proper chance with her shopping basket. The new scheme on November 17 will apply to canned meats, canned fish, and canned beans. How will you get your fair share? These foods have been assigned "points" in much the same way as clothes have.
