RESUMO
Nos anos 1930 difundiu-se no Brasil a nova ciência da nutrição, que introduziu também a convicção de que o leite de vaca constituía o mais importante dos alimentos básicos. Apesar da campanha levada a cabo pelo Ministério de Educação e Saúde Pública em meados dos anos 1930, o consumo de leite no Rio de Janeiro se manteve muito aquém das recomendações dos experts devido à má qualidade do produto e a seu elevado preço. Este trabalho analisa os esforços do Estado Novo para melhorar o sistema de abastecimento de leite da capital brasileira assim como para atenuar causas e efeitos de seu fracasso final.
ABSTRACT
In the 1930s the new science of nutrition was disseminated in Brazil, which also introduced the conviction that cow’s milk was the most important of staple foods. Despite the campaign promoted by the Ministério de Educação e Saúde Pública (Ministry of Education and Public Health) in the mid-1930s, the consumption of milk in Rio de Janeiro remained far short of the recommendations of experts due to the poor quality of the product and its high price. This paper analyzes the efforts of the Estado Novo to improve the milk supply system of the Brazilian capital as well as to mitigate the causes and effects of its ultimate failure.
