Imitation and substitute foods
today have engulfed a large sec-
tion of the grocer’s dairy food
cases. Some substitutes have
been perfected to the extent
they are hard to distinguish
.from the real products, accord-
ing to Extension Nutritionist
Sally Springer.
Substitutes include milk,
margarine, whipped toppings,
coffee whiteners and mellorine.
Substitute milks fall into two
categories: filled milk and imi-
tation milk. Filled milks are il-
legal in Texas and cannot be
sold in interstate trade, ex-
plains Miss Springer, but they
are used today by military per-
sonnel overseas. Imitation milks
are legal in Texas.
Filled milk Is a combination
of milk solids, from nonfat dry
milk or Grade A skim milk, and
fats or oils other than milk fat
(butterfati, explains the Ex-
tension specialist at Texas
A&M.
The fats or oils may be coco-
nut, soybean or cottonseed oil.
To stimulate real milk nutri-
tionally, filled milk is vitamin
fortified, the specialist adds.
Imitation milk is a true dairy
imitation: it does not contain
milk solids as does filled milk.
Ingredients, according to Miss
Springer, are vegetable fat,
sodium caseinate, vitamins,
minerals, coloring, an emulsifier
and seaweed extract called car-
rageenin.
Imitation milk is still in an
experimental state, according to
Miss Springer, and is not suf-
ficiently standardized to be
recommended as a substitute for
whole, skim, nonfat or filled
milk.
Neither filled or imitation
milk is milk as we know it,”
says the nutritionist. “Research
has not shown that coconut oil
is a satisfactory substitute for
butterfat."
This, she says, causes much
of the controversy over the sale
of the milk substitutes.
Coconut oil is often used as
the fat in filled milk. Coconut
oil is highly saturated and
many nutritionists and medical
doctors advise some persons to
limit their consumption of satu-
rated fats, using polyunsaturat-
ed fats instead.
Therefore, Miss Springer con-
tinues, substituting filled milk
for whole milk is not solving
Hie problem. She says that filled
■milks made with corn, soya,
safflower or cottonseed oils may
be a real contribution to better
health.
Why Buy Substitute Milk?
Why do consumers buy subs-
titute foods? Cost, answers
Miss Springer. Substitute milks
may cost from 5 to 15 cents a
quart less than fluid whole milk.
Another reason, some subs-
titute milks have better keeping
qualities; they will not spoil as
fast and some of them do not
have to be refrigerated, notes
the specialist.
And some consumers will buy
substitute milks because of spe-
cial diets. Miss Springer ex-
plains that since milk fat is
highly saturated, many medical
doctors suggest limiting its in-
take for those with certain
heart conditions such as ather-
osclerosis.
Some substitute milks, those
made with soybean oil for ex-
ample, contain less saturated
fats, she adds. However, coco-
nut oil which is often used is
more saturated than milk fat.
Arc Artificial
Sweetners Safe?
Our weight-conscious society
has increased drastically the
use of artificial sweeteners. Re-
cent research has confirmed
their safety for human use at
normal levels of intake.
However, warns Elizabeth
Barnard, Extension foods and
nutrition specialist at Texas
A&M, the artificial sweeteners
are non-nutritive.
"Consumers should remember
that the sweeteners are a nu-
tritional zero. They offer none
of the nutritional value of sug-
ar, whose calories are an im-
portant part of the norma!
diet," the specialist adds. How-
ever, artificial sweeteners are
particularly Important to those
for whom the limitation of car-
bohydrate intake is mandatory
to health.
Some physicians are con-
cerned that long-term use of
cyclamate, the artificial sweet-
ener component, may be harm-
ful to human health, Miss Bar-
nard says.
Death, sterility and growth
retardation have been noted in
mice and rats when fed lavge
doses of the agent. Daily doses
equaled the amount of cyela-
mates contained in five to six
12-oz. cans of soda.
However, in human studies
where individuals have taken
the artificial sweeteners for as
long as a year, no ill effects
were found, the specialist re-
ports.
Millions of people through-
out the world have used cycla-
mate safely for more than 15
years she adds.
About 15 million pounds of
eyclamates were used last year
with about a third going for
noncaloric carbonated b e v-
