many people had to give up many of their luxuries, such as sugar (it was used for glycerin-bombs), flour (needed to make food for the soldiers). pant-hoses (silk used in parachutes). these are a few of the various things that were contributed by the great American nation in an effort to thwart those who tried to take over the world.

AnswerIn addition to that people were encourged to make victory gardens. The days without suger is what I think is Sugarless Mondays, Meatless Tuesdays, Wheatless Wednesdays, and Porkless Fridays. They even had two-meal Saturdays to ensure that the soldiers would have food to eat (I'm pretty sure that's the reason but I may be wrong).
