Eat These Every Day: A Visual Reminder of Essential Foods for Optimal Health during the Progress Era This evocative poster, created between 1941 and 1943, serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of maintaining a balanced and nutritious diet during a time of significant social and economic change in America. The poster, produced by the Works Progress Administration (WPA), showcases an array of essential food groups that were encouraged for daily consumption to promote good health and wellbeing. The central message, "Eat These Every Day," is accompanied by an illustration of various food items arranged in a visually appealing and inviting manner. The poster highlights dairy products such as milk and cheese, symbolizing calcium-rich sources essential for strong bones and teeth. Eggs, a versatile and nutrient-dense food, are also prominently displayed, offering a rich source of protein and essential vitamins. Fruits and vegetables occupy a significant portion of the poster, emphasizing their importance as vital sources of essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber. The bread and cereal group is represented by a simple, wholesome loaf and a bowl of steaming oats, symbolizing the importance of complex carbohydrates for sustained energy. Lastly, meat is included as a necessary component of a balanced diet, providing essential proteins and other nutrients for growth and repair. This poster, a testament to the progressive ideals of the time, serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of nourishing our bodies with essential nutrients to maintain optimal health and wellbeing. The WPA's creation of such posters was a significant contribution to public health education during this period, helping to promote a culture of health and wellness that continues to resonate with us today.
