I just picked up an ILL from Fordham:

Melitta Weiss Adamson, _Medieval Dietetics: Food and Drink in /Regimen 
Sanitatis/ Literature from 800 to 1400_ (Peter Lang, Frankfurt am Main, 
1995)

The _Syntagma_ gets a fair amount of airplay- I would guess at least 
that Adamson at the least finds it to be important. (I just picked up 
the book yesterday so I have only browsed so far, but it looks to be 
really good.)
