ALL FOOD FADDISTS

HONGKONG TELEGRAPH.

A MIXED DIET ADVOCATED

We are all food faddiets;

We ont foods because our par- onts have taught us to eat them; We refuse certain foods just to be different from others,

These were a few points from a speech made by Professor V. H. Mottram, Professor of Physiology | in the University of London, at a lecture given in conjunction with the British Medien! Asscelation conference.

We were all food faddists, ho sald, because food fashions were invariably dotormined by upbring- Ing. We ate the foods we ate be-l cause our parents taught us to ent them, or we refused to eat! certain foods to draw attention to ourselves, to be different from other people, or to relieve some inferiority complex, and not for any sound dietelle renson.
