Constance Bennett gets a yummy diet

Madame Sylvia suggested this diet for Constance Bennett to fatten her up:



Breakfast
Glass of Orange Juice
Dish of hominy mixed with one over-ripe sliced banana with cream and sugar
Glass of certified milk (half milk/half cream)




Luncheon
Half avocado (alligator pear) on lettuce with mayonnaise (made in your own kitchen)
3 heaping Tablespoons of turnips en puree
3 heaping Tablespoons of fresh green peas
2 slices of whole wheat toast with plenty of fresh butter
1 dish stewed fruit
1 glass certified milk




Dinner
1 cup creamed fresh tomato soup
Mixed grill of lamp chops, kidneys, two strips of crisp bacon
Beets in fresh melted butter (make by the heat of the served dish)
Mashed potatoes
Cup of custard, vanilla sauce (the egg for the custard to be less than one day old)
Black Coffee


Recipes

Stewed Fruit
1. Cook the fruit whole, except those that must be peeled and cored
2. Cover with cold sugared water
3. Bring to a boil. Then take off the fire immediately and cool



Constance Bennett's diet sounds yummy! No wonder I like it, it's supposed to be fattening.

  2. I really enjoy reading these entries. I've noticed that these diets are really low in processed foods and carbs. Just a little bread but it's mostly fruits, vegetables and meats.

    Thanks for this series!
