FOOD DEHYDRATION

A History and Background

Your food dehydrator brings a new dimension to ancient food pres-

ervation processes. It allows you to enjoy a simpler and more rapid

drying process in the convenience of you own home. Now you can

have the satisfaction of preparing healthful and delicious treats in the

comfort and convenience of your own home and save money and

have fun at the same time.

Archeological discoveries indicate that early man sustained himself

on natural dehydrated foods and later used heat from the sun or their

ﬁres to preserve food harvested during seasons of plenty.

Dried foods were found in the pyramids and other burial tombs

and centuries later some of it was still in a state of preservation.

The Vikings carried dried foods on their sea voyages. Dried foods

have been stored on board ships throughout the world since ancient

days. The Pilgrims found the Native Americans drying food. Pioneers

used dried beef jerky and other dried foods as staples on their journeys

across the country. More recently, Astronauts who landed on the

moon enjoyed desserts of dried fruit.

Today there is interest in nutrition. Because of the ease and conve-

nience and the economy of preparation and storage, food drying is

universally popular. It is ideal for backpackers, hikers, campers, boat-

ers, cooks, gardeners, dieters, and health food enthusiasts. Great

way to make tasty snacks for kids.

Dehydration is the one of the easiest and most efﬁcient methods of

food preservation. Food is exposed to heat and air in order to remove

moisture. Lacking moisture, bacteria and micro-organisms are inhib-

ited. So dehydrated foods can be preserved for long periods without

refrigeration and they have far less weight and bulk.
