Actually the Rama writes more than that.  He writes that the Beit Yosef 
must have got confused for a moment, and must have been thinking of the 
prohibition on fish and meat. "Nis'chalef lo basar bechalav."  This is 
why most Ashkenazim completely ignore it, because they believe that the 
Beit Yosef himself didn't really hold this way, he just misspoke, or 
rather miswrote, and that if someone had pointed the error out to him he 
would surely have corrected it.

Those who do keep it (most but not all Sefardim, and a small number of 
Ashkenazim) believe that it was not a mistake, that the Beit Yosef 
really did hold this, so they follow it to some extent; the precise 
extent varies from one community to another.
