One involves the observance of rigid cleanliness rules. The other is a chemical compound known to scientists as' sodium propionate. "This is a white powder -that looks like flour and can be baked into bread so that every crumb is protected against bacteria, It is the same substance that Nature puts into some foods such as milk, butter, vinegar and cheese, A well-developed Swiss cheese, for example, contains almost one per cent sodium pro- pionate, which is the reason it is so resistant to mould. However, Nature neglected to include sodium propionate in some of our daily foods. And so it was up to the chemist to synthesize it for the baker to add himself, The powder was discovered only after years of searching for a chemical com- pound that was harmless, but ° would delay mould amd rope in bread and: other bakery products. It was learned that it effectively retards both mould and rope without affecting the bread's quality, texture, Tlavour or ap- earance, ; ~ Costing bakers only a few' penriés" for one hundred loaves' of bread, sodium .propionate is. harmless since it occurs naturally in some of our most nourishing foods. Its potency is not limited" to bread :ajone. It also makes up. for Nature's oversight in baked goods of all kinds, includ- ing rolls, buns, doughnuts, muf- fins and in cakes and pies which cani-also be hot-weather victims of mould if not-rope. } .
