On a dinner plate, should we eat meat first?

[Shelle]

I read an article that was saying something along the lines of we should eat the meat first before proceeding onto potatos and veg.  I didnt take too much notice at the time, but a couple of days later I tried to find the article again with no sucess.  Anyone heard of this and its nutrional value?

It sounds like basic food combining rules. ie- don't eat carbs and protein together. You can look up various diets which do this. I don't see how eating meat first would help, though! You are still eating them together.
