I have always found Brussels sprouts to be the food of the devil.. These bitter little balls of evil should never be given to children.. I suffered such abuse as a little kid when my mom and dad forced me to finish eating them at the dinner table :sick: with the threat of not being able to partake of the glorious food of God,, ice cream,, until i had eaten the little vegetable from the bottomless pit. :mad:

What is truly horrendous is these little balls of bile are promoted as being healthy and worthy of consumption on Utube..

Warning the video below shows the promotion of Brussels Sprouts, those with a delicate palate should be warned to avoid watching this video.. It may cause Trauma..


:LOL::giggle: ;)

I'm not a vegetarian and love meat but I eat brussel sprouts.....they should be steamed completely tender then simmered in some butter.... most don't cook them right or they can be baked into a casserole or added to stews....
Do you eat cabbage at all cole slaw....b.s. are baby cabbages but sounds like they are just bs to you😀

I believe the unclean animals are actually unclean, and eating too much of them can make us sick. I know my stomach doesn't do well when I eat them-especially if I eat a lot.

I am with Didymous here. In fact, The Church of God Seventh Day all feel the unclean meats are still bad for us. If they were ever bad for any humans, why would they not still be? We haven't changed except with shorter lifespans. Anyhoo, that is how we dice it. :cool:(y):)

Unclean food has a whole new meaning these days.

All those genetically modified foods and animals fed on animal meal, plants
sprinkled with carcegenic chemicals, soda made with all man made ingredients etc.

There is actually a book called What Would Jesus Eat. Look it up. I don't agree with everything it said, but it has some interesting points.

About unclean foods, they were labeled unclean because people didn't know about bacteria and how to cook meats to kill bacteria, nor did they have thermometers to gauge food temperatures. And if God had explained it, they didn't have microscopes and would not have understood the explanation. So God said avoid this, this and that because it is unclean.

These days most meats would be clean, because we cook them until all the little critters in them are dead.

Yeah, about 95% of all foods in most supermarkets.
Or to put it another way, every single processed food. All GMO laden food.

Christians are not required to avoid any foods for biblical reasons. If overeating is a problem and you are abusing your body, then you need to figure out how to control your eating. From a sin issue, one may need to figure out what not to eat in order to not sin. That's my take
