  • The Minister of Food Control (1916–1921) and the Minister of Food (1939–1958) were British government ministerial posts separated from that of the Minister of Agriculture. In the Great War the Ministry sponsored a network of canteens known as National Kitchens. In the Second World War a major task of the Ministry was to oversee rationing in the United Kingdom arising out of World War II. The Minister was assisted by a Parliamentary Secretary. The Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Food and Animal Welfare (2018–present) was appointed at the Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs to ensure the continued supply of sufficient food during the Brexit process. The ministry's work was transferred in 1921 to the Board of Trade which had a small Food Department between the wars. This became its Food (Defence Plans) Department in 1937 and was then constituted as the Ministry of Food on the outbreak of war in 1939. Jamie's Ministry of Food was a 2008 UK TV programme featuring celebrity chef Jamie Oliver that aimed to recreate the successes of the Ministry of Food in encouraging healthy eating. (en)
  • I ministri dell'alimentazione del Regno Unito si avvicendarono dal 1916 al 1921 (con la carica di ministro del controllo alimentare, Minister of Food Control) e dal 1939 al 1954 (con la carica di ministro dell'alimentazione, Minister of Food). I rispettivi uffici di governo furono istituiti appositamente negli anni delle due Guerre Mondiali, separandoli dal ministero dell'agricoltura. Uno degli importanti compiti di entrambi i dicasteri era quello di vigilare il cosiddetto Rationing del Regno Unito: una serie di politiche che provvedevano a razionare il cibo in Gran Bretagna durante la prima e seconda guerra mondiale.
