One of the best plans that has been proposed for omnivorous people is
that which has been worked out by Dr. J. H. Tilden. Its skeleton is,
fruit once a day, starchy food once a day, flesh or other protein with
succulent vegetables once a day. I shall make up menus for a few days
based on this plan:
Breakfast: Baked apples, a glass of milk.
Lunch: Boiled rice with butter.
Dinner: Roast mutton, spinach and carrots, salad of raw vegetables.
Breakfast: Cantaloupe.
Lunch: Biscuits or toast with butter, buttermilk.
Dinner: Pecans, two stewed succulent vegetables, salad of lettuce,
tomatoes and cucumbers, dressing.
Breakfast: Peaches, cottage cheese.
Lunch: Baked potatoes, butter, lettuce.
Dinner: Fresh fish baked, liberal helping of one, two or three of the
raw salad vegetables.
Breakfast: Shredded wheat or puffed wheat sprinkled with melted butter,
glass of milk.
Lunch: Watermelon.
Dinner: Roast beef, boiled cabbage, stewed onions, butter dressing,
sliced tomatoes with salt and oil.
The doctor allows considerable dessert. That generally goes with the
dinner.
It is nonsense to write, "So and so shalt thou eat and not otherwise.
