Salad Dressing

Question

Some caesar salad dressings are OU-fish (they have anchovies). Can this be eaten with the same plate and fork that you eat the chicken with? In other words, is it only with fish that you can't use the same plate and fork, or is it also products that have fish in them (sometimes even minimal amounts of fish)?

Using the same fork between fish and chicken after wiping it clean with your mouth, is OK. The real prohibition of fish & meat is based on a time when it was unhealthy and possibly dangerous to eat them together. Today, there is no such thing. Yet, we are still carefull not to eat fish & meat, but to worry about a little flavor still on the fork, is not necessary. AA
