Hi zofsilence, I think you missed my point. Religious food rules tend to match what is healthy for a person to do. The actual story isn't really the point.

One Kosher thing that I do follow is not to drink milk with meat, I don't think it's especially healthy to combine the two. Sometimes religious food rules are grounded in good medical reasons. Not this one. It was founded on the commandment not to boil a baby goat in its mother's milk. Apparently, doing so was a pagan initiation ritual in those days in the Middle East. However, the prohibition against pork was grounded in medical reasons. I think trichinosis was a problem. ted
