Hey Roberto...this guy is fulla horse pucky, IMHO...I really do not
believe, at my advanced age, that this is even remotely correct. Just go
back and read your first paragraph. Now here I am, circa 1926, diabetic,
lactose intolerant, but as far as eating any food other than sugar and
milk, no problem, including chomping habs. And I was not brought up that
way as my diet prior to my late teens was totally, meat and potatoes, NO
heat except black pepper at the table, and even that was sparingly. Hope
everyone had lotsa turkey! Cheers, Doug in BC
