Costing your Weekly Ration during World War Two

 

Rationing was a way of ensuring that everyone in the country was given enough food.

During the war, ships carrying food from different countries to Britain were often attacked and sunk by German submarines.

This meant that many types of food were unavailable and the Government needed to make sure that food was shared out fairly.
