Chapter XVI-Cereals

LL cereals when well prepared are highly nutritious articles of food. The important item in their preparation is that ample length of time must be given to their cooking.

Formerly when the only way possible was to begin boiling them over night, there was less danger of their being indigestible. At the present time, when every chance for saving time is welcome, partially cooked cereal foods have been manufactured, which lessen the actual time of cooking, and the tendency is to slight even the amount of time required to prepare these.

The intelligent housekeeper will not make a practice of continually using the partly digested cereals, and absolutely discarding the uncooked ones.
