Food and Morals: 6th Edition
Clymer, J. F. (John F.)
Food; Sermons, American -- 19th century
“The book is a good one, and should be given a place in every
well-regulated cuisine.”—_Indianapolis Journal._
“As a comprehensive work on the subject of healthful cookery,
there is no other in print which is superior, and which brings the
subject so clearly and squarely to the understanding of an average
housekeeper.”—_Methodist Recorder._
“In this book Dr. Dodds deals with the whole subject scientifically,
and yet has made her instructions entirely practical. The book
will certainly prove useful, and if its precepts could be
universally followed, without doubt human life would be considerably
lengthened.”—_Springfield Union._
“Here is a cook-book prepared by an educated lady physician. It
seems to be a very sensible addition to the voluminous literature on
this subject, which ordinarily has little reference to the hygienic
character of the preparations which are described.”—_Zion’s Herald._
“This one seems to us to be most sensible and practical, while yet
based upon scientific principles—in short, the best. If it were in
every household, there would be far less misery in the world.”—_South
and West._
“There is much good sense in the book, and there is plenty of occasion
for attacking the ordinary methods of cooking, as well as the common
style of diet.”—_Morning Star._
“She sets forth the why and wherefore of cookery, and devotes the
larger portion of the work to those articles essential to good blood,
strong bodies, and vigorous minds.”—_New Haven Register._

Healthful and Palatable.
The most important question with all interested and intelligent
housekeepers should be “What can I prepare for my table that will be
HEALTHFUL and PALATABLE?” The world is full of Cook Books and Receipt
Books, but in nearly every case not the slightest attention is given to
the health and strength giving qualities of the dishes described, and
a large part of the directions are useless (for never followed) and in
many cases harmful (if tried).
What is needed is a practical work in which these conditions are
carefully considered and one which is simple enough to be easily
understood.
A recent publication, HEALTH IN THE HOUSEHOLD, by Dr. S. W. Dodd, a
lady physician and a practical housekeeper, covers this ground very
fully and can be recommended. It considers the value of the different
food products, the best methods of preparation, and the reason why.
The Chicago _Inter-Ocean_ says: “She evidently knows what she is
writing about, and her book is eminently practical upon every page. It
is more than a book of recipes for making soups, and pies, and cakes;
it is an educator of how to make the home the abode of healthful
people.”
