Guest guest Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 , I have always been taught that one was NOT to take milk on an upset stomach. I here you loud and clear on the immigrant standards of health practices! I would think that there are many instances such as with your children, many unreported.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 , My handle is 'Craicker' not Cracker. I've been called both and no offence taken.

I just got over a long bout of stomach flu or food poisoning, whatever it was... anyway, FWIW milk did not sound at all appetizing to me. How about bone broths? Lots of good healing gelatin to sooth the stomach/intestines, plus electrolytes, and it's easily digested. Jill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 , A friend of mine (a truck delivery employee with a well known company) told me that in his day to day deliveries to restaurants the Oriental establishments were filthy, their kitchen hygiene was the absolute worst. To this day he will not eat at a Chinese establishment. The last time I 'treated' myself at my local Oriental restaurant, I paid special attention. I have new respect for his advice and will not eat there again. In respect to the immigrant mentions, I do not think the Orientals were the Pinata.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 I'm not , I'm Renate, but thanks for the input. My son tried raw milk, couldn't keep it down, and that's 4 hours after his last episode, so I guess the advice you heard was right. I did find a neat site that recommended 2 tablespoons of straight vinegar to immediately cure food poisoning. I tried a swig and it was awful, so for my daughter I mixed it half and half with water. The site also recommended iodine, so I put in some of that. She sipped it, and this is just after she was throwing up, and kept it down then went into a deep sleep for hours then woke up with the nausea gone. She had another " helping " of the vinegar water, no iodine this time, took a bath and perked right up. She says it cured her, though she's still tired from being up all night. > > , I have always been taught that one was NOT to take milk on an upset > stomach.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 haecklers.....Renate, why 'o why do I do that? I may have mentioned this before but on one of my last fishing expeditions I fixed breakfast in camp one morning and sometime afterwards I felt extremely nauseated, I immediately suspicioned the sausage that I had eaten. The only thing I had available was vinegar which I took two large gagging swigs of. Within a minute my stomach told me I had done the right thing. Vinegar is my friend.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 Hate to burst your immigrant bubble, but working sick is true of almost everyone in a restaurant kitchen starting with the executive chef. (except maybe super high end, or run by hypochondriacs, or hobby business where the workers don't need to work). Read " Kitchen Confidential " and take a gander at restaurant pay scales and sick day allowances (nonexistant!), and lots of people waiting to take the place of a fired person.
