Historically, this pamphlet could have had a lot of value to a housewife who was struggling to properly nourish her husband and family on the limited goods she had access to due to ration programs. Westinghouse would have also profited from this pamphlet in that their employees would have been eating healthier, so they would have happier employees who could expend more energy into their work. Better built goods may have been produced at a higher rate, meaning more money for Westinghouse. 

Today, this pamphlet has value to nutritionists because they can use it to understand how nutrition has changed over several decades. They could use this information to compare how people ate in rough times and prepare for future issues such as food shortages or more wars to better educate people on how to eat in those tough times.

It could also have value to historians because it allows for insight into the lives of people during World War II, specifically into how "housewives" may have helped with the war if they weren't in the job force. This would help build a fuller picture of the war and how it affected Americans in many different ways.
