"Carrots"

Was the very famous reply Churchill got to his question, "Is there ANYTHING that we are NOT short of?"

Failed to find it when having a search online, but came across this little gem.

"People were inventive in how they boosted the supply of proper butter at home. Some people recalled that you’d do things like sweet talk the women at work canteens to put lots of butter on a scone, and then not eat it, but bring it home and scrape off the butter for use at home." (works canteen food was not rationed.)
