Weekend Onesie: Don't Waste Food!, Part One

Weekend Onesie: 
Don't Waste Food!
Part One

People who check in on this blog on a regular basis know that I am a huge fan of graphics. Some of the finest? From various government agencies around the world. I adore their big, broad use of color and presentation of iconic ideals, characters and images.

During WWII, a great emphasis was placed on food conservation here at home and on the warfront. In the future, we'll look at the efforts made at home, but  today, we'll be looking at some of the propaganda posters targeting servicemen and their dining habits. 

It seems humor is always a preferred means of receiving a  message, be it goofy-looking sailors or hot tamale gals. You'll also be privy to the sage advice of one Scuttlebutt Sam, who wants to make sure those boys on the frontlines eat all they take.

Food conservation is an idea...
That never goes out of style.
Do your part, today.
