Cornell bread

Summary

Cornell bread was invented in the United States during World War II by Clive McCay, a professor at Cornell University,[1] as an inexpensive alternative to strictly rationed foods.[2] Adding powdered milk and soy flour to bread increases its protein content, and restoring the germ to refined white flour results in higher levels of vitamins and minerals.
