WHEN TO EAT FRUIT-The Spanish prOverb
has 1t: Fruit is golden in the morning. silver
at noon but lead at night Americans do not
seem to have heard OF this prOVerD nor to have
one OF their own experience. Mostly they eat
fruit at light, and hence have not the sovereign
idea OF it that they would have if they had
eaten it at more proper times. They eat it as
time TO eat dried fruits, but it is not the right
time to eat juicy ones. The Spanish people
learned their prO1erb from eating the very
juicy fruits, like oranges. These should be
eaten in the morning, a little before dinner-not
later than noon. Early in the day they WILL if
eaten, prove to be the best possible medicine
for the bilious Fruit Recorder.
