Excerpt from The Chemical Composition of American Food Materials, 1899 Until about the year 1880 those who wished to know about the chemical composition and nutritive values of food materials were compelled to depend upon analyses of European products and most of those analyses had been made in German laboratories. During the last two decades American investigations have accumulated and the results have been collated from time to time.
