<div>And while you are answering Phil's question, please enlarge your
answer a little to answer mine. The list and the archive have a great
deal of useful info about vegetarian diets, but little or nothing that
I could find about fat-free and low-fat diets. My fellow-walker and I
have both had by-pass operations. Since mine (in 1992) I have kept to
a very low-fat diet, and my arteries have remained unclogged. This is
easy in North America, with skim milk, and fat-free cheeses, fat-free
yoghourts, fat-free ice-creams. On the protein side, I eat any
fish and the white meat of chicken, turkey, as well as legumes of
course. - In central Europe, which I visit often (e.g., Austria,
Slovenia) it is not easy to find the exact equivalents, but 1% fat
milk and so on is available.</div>
<div>Letters to this list have already taught me about tuna salads,
which with bread with cover three of the four basic food groups. I
remain however concerned about dairy products - especially after my
first visit to Spain, 3 years ago (Bilbao), where I found almost
nothing suitable (but back then I spoke no Spanish: perhaps I missed
it).</div>
<div>I can go for a month without any dairy products, but would prefer
not to! Thanks, Tom Priestly</div>
