Food For The Million: A Plan For Starting Public Kitchens is a book written by M. P. Wolff and originally published in 1884. The book lays out a plan for starting public kitchens in order to provide affordable and nutritious meals to the working class and those in poverty. Wolff argues that by providing access to healthy food, the physical and moral health of the population would improve, leading to a more productive and prosperous society. The book includes detailed instructions on how to set up and run public kitchens, including information on staffing, menu planning, and cost management. Wolff also addresses potential objections to the idea of public kitchens, such as concerns about government interference in private affairs and the potential for dependency on public assistance. Overall, Food For The Million is a historical document that provides insight into the social and economic conditions of the late 19th century and offers a practical solution for addressing issues of poverty and malnutrition.With Statistical Tables, Calculations Of The Prices Of Thirty-Six Dishes, Statement Of The Starting Expense, The Yearly Current Expenditure, The Gross And Net Profits Of A Public Kitchen, And A Ground Plan.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
