[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We've been watching this viral YouTube channel with a Mormon dad and his two kids doing camping stuff in Alaska. Where a typical camping dad would make a morning coffee, the dad and the kids constantly drink garbage Swiss Miss hot chocolate; both in the morning and it appears at night too. Plus bread with honey, pancakes with syrup, donuts, cupcakes, you get the idea.

And I know Mormons are behind Crumbl, which has insane levels of sugar.

So caffeine is evil but you and your kids mainlining absurd levels of sugar and carbs is perfectly fine?[/quote]
Ok its all crazy, but why are you categorizing carbs  with caffeine in a religious context? 
News flash- it's nothing to do with health,  just like being kosher has nothing to do with health. [/quote]

DP. Mormonism actually does bill a lot of the rules as being about health.

This is from the LDS FAQ about what they believe:
Why don’t Latter-day Saints smoke or drink alcohol?
The health code for Latter-day Saints is based on a teaching regarding foods that are healthy and substances that are not good for the human body. Accordingly, alcohol, tobacco, tea, coffee and illegal drugs are forbidden. A 14-year UCLA study, completed in 1997, tracked mortality rates and health practices of 10,000 members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in California, indicating that Church members who adhered to the health code had one of the lowest death rates from cancer and cardiovascular disease in the United States. It also found that Church members who followed the code had a life expectancy 8 to 11 years longer than the general white population of the United States.[/quote]
