Women Want Food Pure: No Fancy Packs Or Prices
“That the women’s institute should insist on all staple foods necessary for good nourishment being made available for sale by weight in pure and unmixed form, and should discourage the growing tendency for these to be marketed in fancy packages at fancy prices, with great wastage of labour and material in their packing, mixing and advertising. All such packages should come under the Pure Foods and Drugs’ Act, and be obliged to state exact nature and quantities of contents,” was a remit submitted by Thames Coast members and carried at the annual meeting of the Tha-mes-Hauraki District Federation of Women’s Institutes.
