Film and food coatings area
rapidly growing area of food
packing.
Twenty yeárs ago the choice
for flexible film consisted of
cellophane and glasslne; but
today there are a multitude of
films and laminates available.
They range from films of sim-
ple construction, such as met-
a foil, to highly complex syn-
thetic films.
Films may be modified in
many ways to make them sh-
rinkable by heat, flexible at
low temperature, transparent
or opaque, and permeable to
gases and moisture. One of
the newer developments is the
production of edible coatings
for foods. Results of research
with this type of packing is va-
ried. Some h ave proven acce-
ptable, but others are still in
the experimental stages. Sp-
ace exploration has created
urgent needs for edible coat-
ings, since they retain flavor,
enzymes, meat cures and spi-
cies.
Many fresh vegetables are
actually"convenience foods."
More and more they are was-
hed carefully before they are
packaged in film bags or bra-
nded.
Immature carrots needn't
even be pelled; just rinse, in-
spect, and lop off the steam
and bit ofthe root. Summer
squash shouldn't be peeled;
just rinse and slice.
Cabbage and head lettuce sh-
ould be up-ended under the
cold water faucet for a minute
then cut in wedges or chopped
coarsely for brief cooking.
Sweet com is a quick cooker
when dunked into a pan of boi-
ling water. Tomato halves,
seasoned and butter-dabbed,
broil in two or three minutes.
Most vegetables are as good
raw as cooked. Cauliflower,
cucumbers, sweet peppers
and onions--dry or green-are
samples. Most homemakers
overcook vegetables, proba-
bly becuase we've always had
plenty of fuel. Not only can
the tota' preparation time of
most fresh vegetables be les-
sened by cooking only until
crisp and tender, flavor and
texture are much better for it,
too.
Some homemakers take it for
granted that it is very time
consuming to prepare fresh
vegetables. They are over-
conscious of a few stems or
skins, many of which are ed-
ible.
Good quality fresh vegeta-
bles on the market Include
asparagus, cabbage, carrots,
celery, corn, cooking greens,
potatoes, onions, and lettuce.
Squash, tomatoes, cucumbers
and peppers are showing dam-
age from excess water (in
some growing areas) and pri-
ces may be up on these.

have increased tenfold In the
last five years. Latest break-
through for the calorie coun-
ters is a new products that
looks and tastes like sugar,
but contains only about one-
sixth the calories. It is now
being rest-marketed. This
product can be used from the
sugar bowl to sweeten bever-
ages, cereals, fruits, and jui-
ces, and reportedly has the
same sweetness as sugar.
The densisty of the new swe-
etener is not Identical to sug-
ar, and this means that the
manufacturer is having to sp-
ecially adapt some recipes.
About half ofthe commerica
production of synthetic sweet-
eners goes Into low-calorie
soft drinks, dry base bevera-
ges (popular with children and
^.o!d in a variety of flavors and
bright co'ors), and canned fr-
uit. Salad dressings, dietetic
jellies and jams,breads,pas-
tries, ice cream, candies, and
a number of other foods are
sometimes prepared with sy-
nthetic sweeteners.
Sales promotion of artificial
sweeteners have been geared
to and accepted by many hope-
ful dieters. However, evide-
nce makes it clear that synth-
etic- alone can't take off unw-
anted pounds. Coupled with
good eating habits, they can be
helpful.
