NO MORE NIBBLING
DEHYDRATED FOOD LESSON (Sppclal Australian correspondent) (Received June 14, 11 a.m.) SYDNEY, June 14 Nibbling between meals is being abandoned by workers in Australian dehydrated meat and vegetable plants. This is because too much rich food has caused distended stomachs among the workers. Many sorters and packers new to the job found themselves unable to resist the temptation to nibble tasty bits off the trays as they passed ;hrough their hands. Later the nibblers became thirsty and drank considerable quantities of water. The five or six ounces of dehydrated meat they had eaten became or 36 ounces of stewing meat once it was mixed with the water. The result was a distended stomach and acute indigestion pains. One bout of indigestion has been found an infallible cure for nibbling.
