COOKING BY SCIENTIFIC METHODS.
Give me a spoon of oleo, ma, And the sodium alkali. For I’m going to bake a pie, mamma, I’m going to bake a pie. For John will be hungry and tired, ma. And his tissues will decompose ; So give me a gramme of phosphate And the carbon and cellulose. Now give me a chunk of casein, ma, To shorten the thermic fat; And hand me the oxygen bottle, ma, And look at the thermostat; And if the electric oven’s cold Just turn it on half an ohm, For I want to have supper ready As soon as John comes home. Now pass me the neutral dope, mamma, And rotate the mixing machine, But give me the sterilised water first And the oleomargarine. And the phosphate too, for now I think, The new typewriter’s quit. And John will need more phosphate food To help his brain a bit.
