And you made me think about how my grandmother told me she gave my
mother tomato juice when she was just two weeks old.
Dear Friends:
In the 1940s and 50s, babies were routinely given water, orange juice,
and something called oleum percomorphum (something akin to cod liver oil,
given for vitamins A and D), even if breastfeeding, starting at 2 weeks.
I can see how a person would substitute one juice for another, given the
mind-set of the time.
warmly,
