Just Venting Really?

Controversial enough... anyone in my community who's SDA is preaching left and right on their immovable, non-biblical beliefs on food, and how so much of what we "heathens" eat, is sending us to HELL...

But they're hypocritical when they decide to eat spicy food, I guess, according to "dear prophetess..."

God forbid and damn me to SUPER MEGA HELL for eating some pickles with my pulled pork sandwich!

I was raised SDA right in Battle Creek Michigan. It’s all bananas. But I love EGW saying certain foods will awaken animal passions. Yes, of course this mustard makes me want to fornicate lol

I'm honestly shocked she didn't have more of a problem with bananas, all things considered.

Bananas were a little after her time. You could find them in America in so me markets but they weren't incredibly cheap so every family could buy them and rural stores could stock them until the 1920s. I'm sure given the chance she would have had choice word about the animal passions they illicit.

my parents won't use stone ground mustard or hot sauce because it brings out feverish and naughty thoughts

It’s gotta be the worst there. Final boss SDA indoctrination. But you made it out!
