...Phyllis McGinley's paean to the American housewife is absurd [Oct. 9]. Housewifery is not a profession. Does one need an education to do a good job making beds? And is it any more "noble" to bake a cake than to teach a child to read? Not all members of the profession have the intellectual sanctuary of a typewriter and a poetic mind to retire to when the emotional strain of being mentally unemployed becomes too much...

In May, after 200 people from Utah were stricken with salmonellosis, food detectives traced the cause to infected frozen eggs used by local bakers. An outbreak that affected 300 people in Washington State last year was also traced to a frozen-egg product used in lemon meringue pies. Modern mass-production methods of food processing sometimes help spread salmonella...
