 The staple food
The staple food among the lower orders in Anglo-Saxon and the immediately succeeding times was doubtless bread, butter, and cheese, the aliment which goes so far even yet to support our rural population, with vegetables and fruit, and occasional allowances of salted bacon and pancakes, beef, or fish.
One very favourable and palatable way was by grinding the meal a second time as fine as flour, boiling it, and then serving it with hot milk or treacle.
There is something in the nature of this food so peculiarly satisfying and supporting, that it seems to have been destined to become the staple nourishment of a poor population in a cold and bracing climate.

 Nutrition Reviews: Staple food fortification with iron: A multifactorial decision / Discussion
Investigators found that absorption of ferrous bisglycinate and NaFeEDTA is usually two and three times better than that of ferrous fumarate or ferrous sulfate in flours.7,8 Absorption of iron from these compounds is approximately 5% in white wheat flour and in corn flour, which can be lime-treated (nixtamalized) or not.
