Human Foods and Their Nutritive Value
Human Foods and Their Nutritive Value, published in 1908 by Harry Snyder, professor of agricultural chemistry at the University of Minnesota, is a textbook of food science for students and householders. It explains the general composition of foods and how cooking changes them, then treats each class in turn: vegetables, fruits, sugars, legumes and nuts, milk and dairy products, meats and eggs, cereals, wheat flour and bread, baking powders, condiments, and tea, coffee and chocolate. Later chapters take up digestibility, the comparative cost and value of foods, dietary studies, the rational feeding of man, water, and the sanitary storage of food. Illustrations show starch grains, standard cuts of meat and milling machinery. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
