HC Deb 07 July 1943 vol 390 c2111W
Viscountess Davidson

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food why the use of semolina as a filler in sausages had been forbidden while the use of rusk is still permitted, as both semolina and rusk are prepared from wheat, and more labour, fuel, etc., are used in the preparation of rusk than in the production of semolina?

Mr. Mabane

Semolina was prohibited as a filler for sausages because it was expected to be needed for milk puddings. The matter is now under review in the light of the supply position.
