The idea that it is harmful to
eat fish and milk together is entire­
ly erroneous.
Fish and milk are
frequently cooked together and
eaten in the form of chowders or
milk gravies. Creamed fish on toast
or served with potatoes is a favorite
dish and is often given to children
Certainly if these two articles of
diet are not harmful when cooked
together they will not be eaten at
the same meal.
