CHAPTER IX

VEGETABLES, FRUITS, AND NUTS

SINCE it is difficult to draw any logical line of demarcation between vegetables, fruits, and nuts, because of the many important characteristics common to articles belonging to more than one of these categories, they will here be discussed in one chapter. The descriptive matter relating to these food materials will be taken up first; and the more critical discussion of the group as a whole, its nutritive importance and place in the diet, will follow.

Vegetables

According to Langworthy, vegetables furnish 8.7 per cent of the protein, 1.0 per cent of the fat, and 12.0 per cent of the carbohydrate of the average American dietary. The Census Reports show $450,000,000 worth of vegetables grown in the United States in 1909. The actual value was probably greater, since this figure is based on returns which were probably not entirely complete, and on the values at the farm rather than in the market. Vegetables are therefore an important factor in the food supply and are likely to play an increasingly prominent part as their importance as food becomes better understood, and as agriculture becomes more intensified.

Of the food materials commonly known as vegetables, some are seeds, some fruits, some leaves, stems, or bulbs, and some are roots and tubers.

The plants whose seeds are commonly used as foods and classed as vegetables belong chiefly to the Leguminosa, or pulse family.
