The children soon become accustomed to the food of the family and drink beer at an early age. Eggs are rarely used by the poor families in Mil- waukee, as the majority in Sicily kept their own chickens and had eggs exceptionally fresh. In Milwaukee the price is higher and rather than have them not fresh, they do not use them. The use of butter and cream is very rare and this may be the reason that the Sicilian women are considered deficient cooks by the Americans. This may be true in regard to ...American dishes, but generally their native dishes are excellently prepared. In normal times, the food of the Italians in Milwaukee is whole- some, although not always suited to the climate and conditions of life. However, there are some cases in which the nourishment of the Italian families becomes deficient in quality. This comes from an obvious reason. Families of the Italian workmen buy their provisions from Italian groceries, because the women who purchase, seldom know any language but their own dialect, and also at the Italian groceries they are given credit when they are unable to pay cash.
