Fourteen points! Can you imagine buying meat with points? War changed life on the homefront.
Down at Helin’s Grocery, you could take your pick of produce without using your blue ration coupons. That’s a good way to get folks to eat their greens.
Able-bodied men who were not overseas were able to advise ladies on fruit purchases.
But who wants cheap fruit when there’s a bakery nearby?
I Don't Get It 
Wasn’t sugar rationed? That would make for a skimpy dessert case. You had to use cash as well as points for meat didn’t you?

I guess if you spend a few years rationing and sacrificing on the homefront, it teaches you a life lesson not to complain about trivial stuff.
