Swiss pineapple cheese cream scarcely sounds like a dish designed to go with German Schinken und Kartoffel. But, forewarned by trade journals, wise West German grocers are busily stocking up on the ingredients.

Replied Sukarno, also in English: "I promise you, in the name of the Indonesian people, to support your struggle...
...encourage European feed mills and farmers to buy more U.S. coarse grains. The U.S. Rice Export Association of New Orleans invested $35,000 in a market analysis, learned that most European groceries sell rice out of bins; thus the European housewife often does not know whether it will cook up as firm, separate kernels or a gluey mess. One U.S. rice processor, Dallas' Comet Rice Mills, is now invading European retail stores with brightly boxed, consumer-size-packaged rice, reports promising sales...
