[open] Fish out of water....New Mod for SDA

[Tishri1]

I like to eat my Weet-Bix first, then a slice of bread with Marmite on it.

I guess it really does not matter that much.

One of the reason in prefering Marmote to Vegimite is that Marmite has B12 in it.

Many SDA's do not eat meat and those that do often eat far less meat so we do have to watch our B12 intake.

oh something I didnt know, why do you eat less meat?

 

[Tishri1]

Hey cool!!! We have a new Mod! Welcome.. it seems you've already met a whole bunch of us. I hope you enjoy your time here
Do be warned that Marmite can be fairly strong, so you might need to try in small doses

Grins and waves.
Shalom!!Shavu'a Tov

Thank you Aceybee, Shavua Tov!

Many Adventists are vegetarians for health reasons. In our area, most Adventists do eat meat, however, although Cliff is right that they probably eat less than the general population. My husband and I are about the only vegetarians in our local churches. In some geographical areas, it's more common. Personally, we as a family have chosen to elminate meat from our diets because of the threats of disease, growth hormones, antibiotics, etc., that are in meat.

Thank you BonnieBee, I am enjoying myself, you all are good people

Hehe, glad you're enjoying yourself!! Hope you don't get too confuzzled with all this talk about vegemite/marmite etc

Yes, same here...

 

[Sunrunner]

I shudder at the mention of vegemite.

That stuff is just sick. The person who made that stuff is a bane to humanity.

 

[Dasdream]

did you know that vegetarions live longer then others?

 

[Sunrunner]

Yep.

Did you ever see that article in National Geographic about longevity? It said that Adventists are among the longest-living people on Earth.

yeh your right we are playing with our lives at times when we consume these potentially hazardous things...I'm such a meat lover though, how would I begin to cut down?

you all are too funny , my craving just switched well I'll just have to find some and see for myself, I'm imagining it tastes something like apple butter

What is apple butter?

Umm, you might have to find a story that imports Aussie food...?

is it something I can get on line and read?

oh did you guys know I havent been sick in almost a year?

I have a secret...well it's not really a secret cuz I've been telling everyone about it, but it really works...

It's a little machine I use called a "zapper"

You use it for lots of things but I have mostly used it when ever I felt a little cold or flu come on and every time since last December it was worked for me and my whole family....We havent ever been sick for all that time

You can see the concept of what it does right here...
They only cost a few $$ to make from basic hardware parts and a few electrical components....

Apple butter looks just like your stuff on toast, it tastes sweet and buttery at the same time

Here's a thread about the longvity of SDA's. Though it started with the topic of meat:

I don't think you can get the whole thing online without subscribing to National Geographic, but here are a couple of links to a summary and some video highlights:

Also, here is an Adventist News Network article that talks about it and mentions the new health study that we are doing currently:

I've never had an opportunity to try Vegemite or Marmite, but the info that I've read says that it's made from yeast byproducts from the beer-brewing industry. They say that it has a very strong and salty taste and that non-Aussies don't usually like it much, especially if they spread it on too thick. I'm guessing that it probably doesn't taste like apple butter.
