Attack About to start attack - onions and milk questions

[Toriax]

Hi all, I am about to start my attack tomorrow and just have a few questions I am left unclear about despite my research, there seems to be a lot of conflicting opinions.

Am I allowed onions on the attack phase? If yes, am I allowed all kinds of onions such as white, red and spring?

Milk - does it have to be skimmed milk even in teas etc, or can I use semi-skimmed? Can I drink glasses of milk (skimmed or semi skimmed) or is it only to be used sparingly.

Thanks so much

Hi Toriax

Yes you can use onions - all types - but make sure you're using them as a "garnish" rather than a vegetable. So, less is more!

Skimmed milk, I'm afraid, not semi-skimmed. However, during Attack its unlimited so, yes, you can drink glasses of milk.

Onions are allowed just to 'taste' I think we kind of say about a teaspoon, just to add a little flavour to burgers etc. Can be any type, as far as I know.

Dairy including skim milk is unlimited on attack. But is limited to a litre in cruise with only 250ml of that from skim milk. This is from the older books and seems to work well for most(though some limit to less than a litre eg 500ml as more stalls them), some editions of the book have different (or no) rules on dairy.

Brillaint, thank you.
The answers are what I had decided myself but I wanted to make sure - so happy I can use a little spring/red onion for flavour
Glad I found this place, I think it is going to prove very handy

I use onion and garlic powder to flavour during attack if that helps?

Good Luck! I use ff quark or fat free yog mixed with mustard for a lovely sauce to go with steak or chicken or whatever, have a look at the recipes on here for more ideas ;-)
