Abstract
A SYSTEMATIC search for natural foods that could be fortified with crude fish liver oils in order to supplement the vitamin A content of diets for native troops resulted in peanut-butter containing 5,000 I.U. of vitamin. A per ounce being produced in large quantities. The peanut-butter masks the fishy flavours of the crudest fish liver oil, while the added vitamin has been demonstrated to be stable for six to nine months at high temperatures (85°–98° F.).
