Description: An MGM production with Robert Benchley as narrator. "Burlesque of a scientific consideration of the influences of environment on the digestive system. Considers the influence of job, love, difficulty of eating at a picnic, anticipation of being at a banquet, hazards of eating in bed, and unpleasant strange company in a dining car, on a man's (Benchley) appetite." "Recommended for use in junior and senior high school courses concerned with health because of the novel approach to valuable 'old style' diet relations. Photography excellent. Dramatic composition fair. Disastrous." Collaborator
