GHLij^.ouu; > said he is engaged in an effort to attract more students to the field. Although in most areas, nu trition is normally studied by women students, Ramsey does not feel there will be any diffi culty attracting men to the pro fession. For one thing, he said, there is the attraction of direct commissions in the armed ser vices. Pood scientists, certified by the American Dietetic Associa tion, can be commissioned di-. rectly as second lieutenants. Food in the armed services is no longer solely the province of the mess sergeants, he said. i The Air Force, particularly, has changed the image of the men responsible for food prepa ration. "The wash-outs used to be assigned to the quartermaster corps as cooks," he said. The space age has changed things. The new assistant professor's father is a nutrition expert at Tuskegee Institute. The son studied under his father as an. undergraduate and as a candi date for his Master of Science degree, so that nutrition has al ways been a man's field to him. Food science is full of oppor tunity, Ramsey said. He de scribed some of the recent dis coveries in the field. "Within the past three weeks, a process for making proteins from petroleum has been dis covered. A strain of bacteria has been bred which feeds on the petroleum and converts it into essential proteins," he said. "Until recently, wheat has lacked some of the essential pro teins. New strains have been de veloped which have all oi the necessary amino acids," Ramsey noted. Other recent developments in clude the development of the first synthetic carbohydrates and the discovery of a flavor agent which makes the various non animal proteins taste like meat, he said. "The soy-bean proteins can be spun out in fibers, just like textiles, to duplicate the texture of any meat. Then a wild yeast, which as a meaty flavor, can be added, and you have a product which looks, feels, and tastes like meat, with all the food values of meat, but really isn't meat at alii" Synthetic proteins and other foods are part of the United States' concerted effort to de velop answers to the world's pressing food problems, but other developments can change and are changing the eating habits of the nation's affluent citizens. "I predict that soon you will be able to go to the store and buy a six-pack of breakfast, lunch and dinner," Ramsey said. He said the new packaging processes have made food easier to store, prepare and served. . "I studied under a man at Michigan State University who helped to develop the processes by which such foods as beef (Continued on Page 5) NOT FUNNY?
