How was rationing different from before the war?

Rationing restricted the amount of certain food products, gasoline, clothing and other things. Before the war there was no rationing, however, there was a depression. So many people said they ate better during the war since wages were up, jobs plentiful and food more available even with the restrictions. In England this was not the case because they had not recovered from the depression and the Germans repeatedly sunk supply ships. England had to stay on rationing for 10 years after the war.


What is the price of food in 1940 England?

Food rationing kept prices down. In fact, one of the main purposes of rationing by coupons was to prevent, or at least drastically limit, rationing by price. (Without rationing by coupons, shortages would have driven food prices sky high, and no government wants riots during a difficult war).
