SC - fried fish and other foods

[Terry Nutter]

Hi, Katerine here.  Adamantius asked:

>Are you suggesting that meals were either all meat or all fish? I don't
>think the extant menus support that.

Every extant English menu I've seen does; I haven't studied menus from
elsewhere nearly so closely, but I don't recall any French menus that
included fish on meat days either.  However, this is certainly something
that is likely to have varied by place and by time -- the latter 
especially, as the number of days of abstinence in the calendar 
declined.  I would't want to make any claim about 16th century menus,
without careful study.

Cheers,
