EAT ALONE, EAT WELL Individuals who live alone can be divided, by diet, into two dis tinct groups. At one extreme are those who plan, shop and prepare meals with the same vigor as if they were cooking for a family of four. At the other extreme are those whose refrigerators may contain nothing more than a jar of mustard, a loaf of tired bread, a stick of margarine and a six-pack of diet soda. If you, or someone you care about, fits into the latter category, it’s time to consider a change. When eating alone, we fre quently do not bother fixing a nutritious, balanced meal. Instead we grab whatever’s quick and handy: leftovers, snacks or over processed convenience foods. Sometimes the meal consists of only one kind of food rather than an appetizing mix. Fruits and veg etables get forgotten in the rush. This type of dining can affect not only the composition of the meal but the whole experience as well. Such a repast might be eaten standing over the sink, in front of the television, while reading or on the run. Food is consumed either rapidly, absenpnindedly, pr bpth. rather than in a relaxed manner-in r------- CUP THIS VALUABLE COUPON! - Reg NATIONAL RECLINER Must have coupon for this special priest OUR CASH PRICE $120.95 coupon $BB4B $69.00 -------- - (WHILE SUPPLIES LAST) ■ - - ------- - .CLIP THIS VALUABLE COUPON!- - - -- -- -- -| i Smirn Ton must see this one! | ■ c "-nTVf' Contemporary styling ( 1 SECTIONAL SET i !

By Doris Thomas Lancaster Extension Home Economist which each bite is savored. And thanks to the microwave, you can place processed food in the oven, wait for the bell, eat it and, presto, you’re done, practically before you can say “Bon Appetit.” Nearly everyone eats this way on occasion. But when the catch as-catch-can style becomes a reg ular habit, you may need to work on improving your nutritional profile. Planning is the key. When you go to the supermarket, use a basic checklist. Included should be leafy greens and yellow veget ables, citrus fruits, low-fat dairy products, meats, fish, eggs, poul try, dried beans and peas, as well as whole-grain or enriched breads and cereals and rice and grain pro ducts such as pastas. Make your selections with these important categories in mind. Plan to use highly perishable fruits and vegetables early in the week. Later in the week, you can depend on frozen vegetables. Buy these in pourable bags, which are easier to re-close than boxes. Plan ahead in cooking, too. Think in broader terms than just meal by meal.

Pasta sauces or soups can be kept in the freezer in microwave containers for defrost ing later on. Along with pasta, salad and a piece of fresh fruit, they make a delicious, nutritious meal. Or cook a sizable pot of beef stew, which will serve you in good stead for two or three days. Any extra will last several months in the freezer. Some people And it convenient to do this type of larger-scale cooking on the weekend. If you are having a guest for a meal, you can also cook extra servings at that time and store them for later use. An added advantage to relying on your freezer in this way; If you decide to go out for dinner on the spur of the moment, your food will keep just fine. Or, if you invite a friend home you will have plenty to share. The main message is that while spontaneity in many matters adds zest to life, a little foresight in the supermarket and advance work in the kitchen allows you to shop more economically and eat more nutritiously. It also gives your solo meal a touch of class. After all, who deserves it more than you? BASSETT MATTRESS & BOX SPRING Reg. Ret.

Sixty-eight markets saw heavy advertising, 32 markets saw mod erate advertising and the remain der received little to no chocolate milk advertising. During the promotion, choco late milk sales climbed 17.4 per cent in the 68 markets where heavy advertising aired, 4.5 per cent in the 32 markets receiving moderate advertising, and 1.1 per cent in areas where little to no advertising was run. However, since ready-to-serve chocolate milk accounts for only 4 percent of total fluid sales, the Board also measured sales of white milk and chocolate addi tives (syrups and powder). Total milk sales in the markets where the promotion tan were up 0.9 per cent while markets receiving mod erate or no advertising saw vol ume declines of 7 to 14 percent. In addition, sales of chocolate addi tives increased 5 to 8 percent, indicating additional success of the promotion. The Board aired a 30-second TV commercial and offered a 60-second radio commercial and in-store promotion materials to state and regional promotion groups, chocolate milk processors and retail stores. "To avoid ’cannabilizing’ white milk sales which tend to dominate during mealtime, the Board posi- m. tioned chocolate milk as a satisfy ing snack,” said Bill Underwood, New Yoric dairy farmer and chair of the Board’s advertising and sales promotion commettee. “Our chocolate milk promotion seemed to stem declines in milk consump tion, so we are developing a simi lar campaign for next fall.” Last fall, the National Dairy Board joined UDIA in their fall cheese promotion, "Cheese Snack Facts.” Data from retail stores and in-home research panels show that the promotion, which ran for eight weeks from mid-September through mid-November, sold more cheese. In grocery stares with electron ic scanners, cheese sales increased 2.6 percent during the promotion over sales for the same period last year. That increase represents 6.1 million pounds of cheese. In a study that looked at in home consumption based n a three-year trend, sales increase 12.3 million pounds or 4.S percent over expected volume during the promotion period. “We (National Dairy Board members) were pleased with those increases in cheese sales.” Under wood said. “So the Boaid has decided to join UDIA for another fall cheese promotion with details to be developed.” j m) WEHPORM/ No Refund], No Exchanges.
