weekly food allowance 1941
JLP Archive collection
In 1941 food was severely rationed. This is a picture of the weekly amount of basic food the government allowed per adult. It led to many people being very creative with what they could cook for their families. Everyone was given a ration book with coupons to buy their allowance in their local shops, but there was seldom enough to go round!
