The Ration Book Diet Paperback – 1 Jun. 2023

This book is a very worthy timepiece depicting how we as a nation survived in past years on limited food supplies when there were food shortages i.e. in times of war and conflict. It is by the simple things in life i.e cooking a meal from what you have left in the fridge, larder or pantry and being able to turn these ingredients into a simple but appetising and nourishing meal, that is a skill all to often lost these days , in favour of more convenience foods like ready meals. A very good read and comes highly recommenced worthy of a 5 star rating, and is an important piece of our recent 20th century history of food.

A VERY INTERESTING BOOK. PLENTY OF INFORMATION ABOUT THE WARTIME DIET.IT ALSO HAS RECIPES WITH A MODERN TWIST. ALL IN ALL A CRACKER OF A BOOK.

This book is a revelation about how food was rationed during World War Two, also the recipes can be used today. I have made meals from it with great success. The way of eating was healthier than much of our processed diet today.

I’m pleased with this book. Has some more updated recipes than I was expecting but following the recipes of the time even with better access to some food items today.

Dont really know what to say about this book...its not what i was expecting

I have a few books on war time rationing recipes but, this is the first where the reasoning is broken down sensibly, easy to understand the political reasoning behind it.Also touches on ration books in a very light manner.The recipes are great and trying them out already.

Thought was getting a book to explain the ration diet that would have recipes in for a weight loss programme. Instead it’s an informational book about the diet of people in WW2 on rations. Disappointed

Lots of useful recipes. Good purchase
