I found a partial answer in the wiki entry for Eustace Miles. He was a real person in the Edwardian era who was into healthy fad diets. It appears that one of his restaurants was run by suffragettes, which seems to be something Ms. Schlegel would like. Protein builders and protein hash were most likely made of lentils, because Mr. Miles was an avid vegetarian and "sport."
