What did people Eat during World War II in the Land of Israel? - Two Interesting, Rare Items - A. Keitzad Mevashlim Bimei Milchama? (How to Cook during a war?) by Lillian Cornfield. At the beginning of the 1920's, Lillian Cornfield was a new immigrant from Canada. She worked as a teacher at the Evelina De Rothschild School in Jerusalem. She also managed the first playground for children in Israel in the Old City of Jerusalem. She was also a nutrition consultant of the institutions of the British Mandate, the American Army in Palestine during World War II, the Red Cross and UNRA. That is when she published the book before us: the first cookbook in Hebrew that contained a recipe for Hummus! Condition: Good. Tears and damage to the binding. B. Five sheets of sugar rationing cards, Palestine. Seeing these cards, one can understand the background for the writing of the above book. World War II led to a situation of shortage of basic products. Therefore, both in London and Jerusalem, the British issued food coupons for the public. Before us are five sheets of sugar rationing in Palestine. Rare! Condition: Very Good.
