Eggs are an excellent
choice for a breakfast food,
says Mrs. Laßue Hefner,
Penn State extension foods
specialist. Eggs are well-en
dowed with iron, phosphorus
vitamins A and D, and the
B-vitamins—all needed for
energy, growth, good appe
tite and to maintain calm
nerves and healthy blood.
Eggs are a natural for the
breakfast menu any day of
the week.
