Weekend Onesie: Eat Well!

Weekend Onesie: 

Eat Well!

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. Today, we'll be looking at efforts to improve the American diet.

I've even thrown in a March of Dimes poster for good measure.

Not only did the government ask that you grow your own food, can it, and take measures to not waste it - they also focused on making sure you eat healthy. Their definition of healthy? Well, that depends on your own dietary beliefs. However, they did get their message out, boldly, colorfully and sometimes humorously.  

Eat well.

That never goes out of style.

Do your body some good, today.

Don't Waste Food!

Part Two

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. Today, we'll be looking at one particular aspect of the fight to save food: home canning.

I've thrown in a couple of how-to covers, as well.

Not only did the government ask that you grow your own food, they also wanted you to preserve it via canning and they got their message out, boldly and colorfully. Doing your part at home meant helping those on the frontline... yes, this was, indeed, everybody's war to win.

Food conservation is an idea...

That never goes out of style.

Activate. Do your part, today.

Weekend Onesie: MILK!

Weekend Onesie: 

MILK!

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.

Remember the 'Got Milk?' campaign? Talk about your propaganda!

Love it or leave it... milk has always been a part of a good portion of the world population's diet. It's a huge industry and therefore, its welfare becomes a governmental concern. That helps explain many of these governmental campaigns, keeping the consumption of milk first and foremost in the mind of consumers, especially targeting children.

Today, we take a brief look at some of the graphics involved, images from around the world. Their use of humor and color and the quality of the artwork make one believe that milk is the answer to all that ails human kind.

However you choose to eat...

Make healthy choices.

You'll feel better and love life more!
