A—BENGALI DIET.
The ordinary jail diet of Bengal—leaving aside slight variations for
undertrial Prisoners up to one month and after one month—consists of:—
| . | Grammes | ||||||
| Burma or Country rice | 13 chittacks | = | 26.65 ozs | = | 755.80 | ||
| Different dals in use | 3 „ | = | 6.15 „ | = | 174.41 | ||
| Vegetables in season | 3 „ | = | 6.15 „ | = | 174.41 | ||
| Mustard oil | 5/16 „ | = | .64 „ | = | 18.14 | ||
| Condiments | ⅛ „ | = | .26 „ | = | 7.37 | ||
| Antiscorbutic | ⅛ „ | = | .26 „ | = | 7.37 | ||
| Salt | 7/16 „ | = | .90 „ | = | 25.52 |
(One chittack is equal to 2.05 ozs. avoirdupois).
