I'm not sure about the margarine (personally I can't stand the taste of that in any case!), I think this is more a case of looking at what you should have on the ration and Veggifying it! So instead of "standard" sausages, use Quorn sausages, instead of M*at use Quorn chunks, Quorn mince or lentils etc.
When it comes to the sugar I doubt I would ever use 8 oz a week either, the most I use is half a teaspoon in cocoa in the Winter! I think the whole, this is all you can have each week, thing is what will make me think more about what I am putting in my body.
I may not be able to do the exercise they would have done in the Ration Book years BUT I can start using my hand weights and the resistance band I have. The question is do I start this before Yule and the 31st December, OR do I kick this off as a New Year, New Me start type of thing?

Quorn didn't exist then. Vegetarians got extra cheese and powdered egg.
The margarine was horrible.
I am sure we never had 8 ounces of sugar a week.
Other things, it just depended on what was available locally.
