In case you thought clothes rationing was bad enough, foods were also rationed; Meat, Eggs, Fats (butter etc), Cheese, Bacon and Sugar. Tea had been
rationed; Sweets were rationed. There were unallocated codes in the rear pages of the book, for any other foodstuffs that became in short supply. The whole
book was 26 pages, and woe betide anyone whose book was incomplete, they simply had to go without.
