There's a Foremost dairy building here, abandoned for years, as far back as I can remember. A local entrepreneur recently remodeled it into a coffee & market venue (lunch cafe, office rentals, meeting and event space, farmer's market).

Who remembers the Dieter's Plate that many restaurants had for awhile in the middle of last century? A hamburger patty, scoop of cottage cheese and a peach half. That never struck me as very dietetic.

Louis- Glad to see you're still posting vintage food ads! I control my Type II diabetes by eating no more than 20 total grams of carbs per day, but I can make a keto version of the Buttercup Biscuits in Reply #30 using sandwich buns made with egg white protein powder. I remember making quite a number of the recipes from your ads back in the day. There's something about the look and recipe content of vintage ads that I find very satisfying.
I haven't forgotten Eugene...
I've been busy with a kitchen remodel so I haven't been posting much. I should be done in a couple of weeks and be back to posting more often.

Chris,
You must have been reading my mind! My first thought about the hamburger with the cottage cheese was also about those “Diet Plates” of the 50’s and 60’s. I remember that the Woolworth’s Lunch counter had a Diet Plate like the one you describe. Many other diners and restaurants had similar offerings for a Diet Plate, with either canned pineapple, sliced tomatoes or some other canned fruit in place of the canned peach half. Melba Toast was often also an accompaniment.

Diet plates
Those were basically high protein(burger and cottage cheese) low carb(no bun) esp since protein has high satiety value. Even with the peach half and Melba toast, it still is a low carb meal

Borden 900 Calorie Diet Drink 1962
Currently on Ozempic and a 1200 calorie diet plan. It's rough. I don't know how people did it with 900 calories pre-Ozempic, you're going to need a lot of will power.
