Ice Cream Doubly Good In Dairy Food
Value Nutrition To Healthful Living
Ice Cream has always been so
palatable ? so good ? . that few
people have realized Its inherent
goodness, its food value and its
contribution .nutritionally.
"Neither do most of the con
sumers realize that ice cream is
a dairy food," declared Howard
Clapp, Cleveland County farm a
gent. "It's formula is simple; it's
made up of 80 percent to 85 per
cent cream and" milk solids, a*
bout 15 percent sugar, and the
balance is various kinds of flav
oring. Ice cream contains a min
ute amount of edible stabilizer
such as gelatin, and sometimes
eggs, but cream and milk make
up the greatest proportion of the
ingredients. "This means, con
tinued 'Mr. Clapp, "That Ice
cream contains all of the impor
tant nutrients of milk, only . in
different proportions. Ic? cream
manufacturers today concentrate
the solids so that modern ice
cream makers are turning out a
much better product nutritional
ly than the one we remember be
y I ? 111.11. - I ? 1 .... ? - - ?
lng made in the home free/cr
years ago."
Ice cream's importance in the
diet was recognized during
World War II when it was inclu
ded in the 7 Basic Food group by
the Interagency Committee on
Nutrition and School Lunch, a
federal governmental group. E
nough scientific information was
available to that toody. for them
to evaluate ice cream's impor
tance as a highly nutritious
food.
The fact that it Is so univer
sally liked makes it the popular
answer to those wishing to build
up the diets of the young and
particularly the older age
groups. Ice cream is highly di
gestible ? and its nutrients are
readily available. Some idea of
its importance nutritionally can
be gleaned from the fact that
one-sjxth of a quart of average
vanilla ice cream can supply an
individual with significant a
mounU; of his daily need for rib
oflavin, vitamin A, fat, calcium,
phosphorous, and importnat a
mounts of protein and thiamine.
The demand for ice cream has
steadily increased with our
knowledge of its nutritional val
ue. At the turn of the century, ice
cream manufacturers were pro
duing about 5 million gallons.
In 1953 it is expected that our
production will reach nearly 600
million gallons. Ice cream is no
longer onsidered a luxury nor in
the onfection class, but a mighty
palatable, mighty popular, very
glamorous dairy food.

Cleveland County Dairy Industry
Represents 3 Million Dollar Mark
<??
The dairy industry in Cleve
land County represents an an^
Jiual cash business of more than
three million dollars, according
to figures released yesterday by
County Agent Howard Clapp.
Of the total cash transaction
in the county, approxicately
$1,500,000 is paid directly to the j
farmers. The hauling, processing,
and distributing expenses are re
sponsible for the total figure.
Citizens of Cleveland County
have been invited to observe June I
Dairy Month this week by join
ing with the milk producers and
processors in promoting the sale
of milk and dairy products.
It was pointed out that over
8,000 milk cows are now in ser
vice in this county. In 1946 there [
were only 12 Grade A dairies in
the county, as compared with
130 today. In addition, there are
10 farmers who are producers
and distributors of raw milk.
One local processing firm buys
over 75,000 pounds of milk every |
day from more than 650 farmers
of Cleveland County:
In this week's dairy observ
ance, committees are working on
a variety of programs promoting
the sale of dairy products.
W. C. Stallings is heading up
a committee to carry out the nro
motional end at two local ball ]
games.Saturday night gifts con
sisting of ice cream, milk, and
other dairy products will be giv
en away at the end of each in
ning.
A secret committee, laden with
bright silver dollars, will be eat
ing in various places around the
county this week. Any waiter or
waitress who suggests dairy pro
ducts to a patron belonging to
the committee might receive a ?
one-dollar tip. If they fail to |
make such a suggestion, a card
will be left telling them what they
missed.
