Why does the Government ration all of the listed canned foods together? A. If only the canned foods that are most scarce were rationed, consumers would rush to buy the unrationed foods which could be used instead. This would create shortages of the alternate foods, which would then have to be rationed after the supply had been seriously depleted. Q. What foods are included in the new rationing program? A. canned, bottled, and frozen fruits and vegetables, fruit and ve­ table juices, dried fruits, and all canned soups. These are “pro­ cessed” foods. PROCESSED FOODS Q. Just what is a processed food? A. One that has been pre­ served so that it will keep as long as it stays in its processed condition. Canned foods, for ex­ ample, keep as long as they re­ main sealed; frozen foods as long as they remain frozen. Q. Are jams, jellies, and mar­ malades included? A. No. These are not generally used inter­ changeably with canned fruits. Q. Why are foods that are not PROCESSED FOODS Q. Just what is a processed food? A. One that has been preserved so that it will keep as long as it stays in its processed condition. Canned foods, for example, keep as long as they remain sealed; frozen foods as long as they remain frozen. Q. Are jams, jellies, and marinades included? A. No. These are not generally used interchangeably with canned fruits. Q. Why are foods that are not used extensively included in the rationing program? A. To preserve for consumers as wide a choice of foods as possible in spending their ration points. Q. Is evaporated milk included in the rationing program? A. No, canned milk is not being rationed in this program. Q. What do the numbers on the ration stamps mean? A. The numbers on the stamps (8, 5, 2 and 1) show how much the stamp is worth in "points." Q. What is a point? A. A point is a ration value much as dollars and cents are money values. Rationed foods have both point and money values. DIFFERENT COLORS Q. Why are the stamps of different colors? A. The blue stamps will be used for rationing processed foods; the red stamps will be used later for meat rationing. Q. What do the letters on the stamps mean? A. The letters on the stamps will be used by the office of price administration to designate the time during which a stamp is valid. For example, stamps lettered A, B, C could be designated for use during the first ration period. Q. Why is it necessary to give different point values to different kinds of processed foods? A. Low point values will be given to foods that are relatively plentiful; high point values to those that are most scarce. The buyer can get more for his "points" by buying the foods with low point value. Since most housewives will no doubt do this, it will relieve the demand for very scarce foods.
