'My personal opinion of margarine has quite changed owing to the arrival of this questionnaire. My mother opened it by mistake, but finding it was not of a private nature, read the questions. When I arrived home for tea that evening she asked as if I felt hungry. I replied, yes, and went on reading the paper, 'Here is a piece of bread and butter for you to go on with' she said.'
