They should be used very seldom.
COMBINATIONS.
Potatoes are best eaten in combinations such as given for cereals. They
are commonly taken with meat and bread. This combination is one of the
causes of overeating. Occasionally they may be eaten with flesh, but
this should not be a habit. Take them as the main part of the meal.
Baked potatoes and butter with a glass of milk make a very satisfying
meal. A good dinner can be made of potatoes with cooked succulent
vegetables and one or two of the raw salad vegetables, with the usual
dressings. It is best not to eat potatoes and acid fruits in the same
meal.
In selecting food it is well to remember that as a general rule but one
heavy, concentrated food should be eaten at a meal, for when two, three
or even four concentrated foods are partaken of, the appetite is so
tempted and stimulated by each new dish that before one is aware of it
an excessive amount of food has been ingested.
