May be part of it. The promo mentions Hershey giving chocolate to
soldiers and Ray Krock and one location.

Yes, I saw a Dutch consumer program where they moved cornflakes along
in milk or water, with a magnet. Because of the added iron. Groovy,
no?

Ok, Mexicans, Julie and me. But the statement seemed broader.

Note: that's only 11 days from now. I'll make a note to watch it.
Too bad it sounds like a weekly season series though. Better to
make one long 2-3 hour documentary. Oh well.

Agreed! That experiment would be interesting to recreate at home.
Just like that time I watched science show and they claimed you
could freeze a bumblebee solid. It will just go dormant and with
heat it will wake up and survive. I couldn't resist that one. I
went right out and captured a bumblebee on a clover. Put it in a
jar and stuck the jar in my freezer overnight. Next morning, I
carefully poured out the bumblebee onto a plate. We all watched
and sure enough, after a few minutes, legs starting wiggling. Few
more minutes and it turned over and just sat there while body
warmed up. I set the plate outside and a few minutes more, the
bumblekid started walking around the plate then just flew off.
lol

I do know that women need extra iron in their diets whereas older
men, it can be bad for them

Absolutely fascinating!!! I would never have believed that had
you not experimented!

Yes. I have had to change my cooking atm because D. has been found
to have high iron levels in his blood. Fingers crossed this last test will
be better.

I'm surprised no one knew the song the lyrics I posted came from.

I saw that experiment back in the 60's on educational TV. These short programs were probably made in the 50's. It was not presented in an alarmist sort of way - the iron was a nutritional supplement. Back in the old days, Americans had no fear of food of the foods they ate. Well, except maybe butter.. These days, Americans are running scared. That's the breaks.
