"Muscular Gourmet by Mandy Tanny

Gourmet Dining on a Bodybuilder's Budget

Fitness through famine has become an institution so well respected that most serious dieters wouldn't dream of whipping up mousse or pate for fear of losing their rank in the race for 3% bodyfat. The dieter obediently takes the attitude that the less food there is and the simpler it is, the better it is for the diet.

This is true: Raw food in its natural state actually is best. It contains all the live enzymes that are destroyed in cooking, so you need and eat less of it to survive. Yes, this would be ideal, but unfortunately this practice is rarely taught in civilized cultures, and it would (Continues on page 238)

Bodybuilder-actor Richard Brose knows that M&F's low-budget meals skimp only on their cost, not their nutritional value. When he's not concentrating on diet, Richard makes his presence felt as the title character in Universal Studios Tour extravaganza 'Conan the Barbarian.'"

Dairy Industry Bureau, 1950s


Cheesy!, originally uploaded by glen.h.
Scanned from Dione Lucas Cookbook.

"Just like milk... butter and cheese belong on your family table!

Protect your family with Nature's own vitamin-balanced foods!

You never outgrow your need for foods made from milk!

Butter and cheese go naturally together! Both are the best of milk and both have a well-balanced vitamin content.

Butter is a natural food churned from 100 per cent real cream, and it is from cream that butter derives its subtle flavour. Full of energy-producing vitamins and concentrated goodness, butter is one of the highly protective foods for the winter season.

Cheese contains more protein than any other ready-to-eat food. It takes one gallon of milk to make one pound of cheese - a concentrated source of calcium so necessary for growing children.

Every cook and homemaker gets the most delightful results and the greatest food value by using foods made from milk!

In this Australia - just like milk... real butter and cheese belong on your family table.
