I've never had any of these combinations, so I can't disprove their claims from prior experience
Looking at it, I think the easiest combo for me to acquire would be coconut and honey, so I'll have to give it a try and see if truly (DEAD)
Lemon and milk would be the easiest for me. I'm sure I've had those together before, at least in some dessert.
Using lemon to curdle milk is normal
Death is also normal
yeah but chunky milk won't kill you, in fact it is an ingredient for some wonderful desserts
If you stir the milk while you add in the lemon juice slowly it will be less likely to have curdled chunks in it 👍
Very true
Very true so at least a little false.
Definitely a little false but mostly a bit more true probably.
A JS enjoyer I see
Basically buttermilk, yeah.
Well kind of, anyway.
Ah, so that explains why I'm dead inside.
Or coconut and honey. I’m sure that’s in some candy or cookie I’ve had at some point
Didn't realize that one was on there! I've had a frosted lemonade at Chick-fil-A and did not (DEAD), so claim is bunk!
Also literally one of the ways to make a basic cheese (boil milk, add lemon, collect and strain curds from whey, add salt to taste). Can substitute vinegar for lemon.
Lemon pies
You've never had surf & turf at a restaurant? And if you're vega(taria)?n, you've almost certainly had coconut & honey in some proceeded drink - honey is a common substitute sweetener for sugar, and processed sugar is considered bad in a subset of that community.
But what I wonder is where these things come from, and how common they are?

I can't tell if you're being funny; I don't think they meant eating the shells.
Surf & turf was me. And I am spectacularly ignorant of the vast variety of Indian cuisine, but I would be surprised if literal shells is a common staple. It doesn't say "calcium," it says "shells." And it shows a picture of what looks like a cluster of mussels, although it could be clams.
Nobody in the US eats shells like that, except for Blueshell crab almost exclusively in the mid-Atlantic region. There are some recipes where you cook crab whole until the shell dissolves into the soup, but in neither case is the point to eat the shells - they're just along for the ride to get to the meat. And if it's a source of the calcium that's sometimes added to some food, it'll say "calcium," it won't say where it came from.
So: you're claiming that it's common in India for people to, what... source and grind up shells and eat them? I suppose if folks are doing it to Rhino horns, that's not the weirdest thing I've heard. I think it's just more likely it's referring to shellfish.
