Wholemeal Bread

Sir,—Many doctors are advising their patients to eat a balanced diet and recommending wholemeal bread. I would like to ask the president of the Master Bakers’ Association if he could inform your readers where they can purchase a real wholemeal loaf of bread made from whole wheat Seeing that £4sm was spent last year to keep our hospitals going and that most of them have been kept full and most have a waiting list,

would it not pay to educate people to eat balanced meals and Cut out all refined food and eat natural food which would improve our health and keep many people out of the hospitals and so save thousands of pounds?—Yours, etc. OLD-TIMER.

March 24, 1967. [The president of the Canterbury Bakers’ Association (Mr W. R. Hawker) replies:— “If your correspondent would, telephone me and let me know how and where he now obtains his supplies of bread, and whether he refers to a wholemeal loaf with, or without, the addition of the 10 per cent of white flour permitted under the Food and Drug Regulations, I shall try to locate a source of supply convenient to him.”]
