Drinking Fruit Juice with breakfast

Post by _SuperDell »

So, friends were visiting and when the topic of breakfast came up we assured them we would cook the breakfast and have milk and fruit juice available.

Next morning - eggs, sausage, hash browns, milk and fruit juice.

One drink of the fruit juice and the Shiz hit the fan.

"THIS IS COFFEE!"

Yes, it is. Coffee is a fruit and we have fruit juice nearly every day at our house.

He didn't drink it and opted for water instead.

Just can't please some people.

Coffee is a fruit product, all right, but does an infusion of ground seeds count as juice?

Probably just as much as Tang.
Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by rulers as useful.

The Tang that can be named is not the eternal Tang?

If astronauts drank Tang, would that make it Telestial Tang? Anyway, Ronald Reagan and subsequent Republicans have pushed for ketchup to be counted as a vegetable in the lunch for school kids, so there may be hope for coffee as a fruit.

I have an interesting (your mileage may vary) question about coffee and the word of wisdom.

Coffee (along with tea) has been determined by more recent Prophets to be what is meant by the term "hot drinks" in the original word of wisdom. Clarity has been given that caffeine consumption isn't against the word of wisdom, simply coffee drinks and tea drinks. Okay, enough preamble, my question is this: One can buy chocolate covered coffee beans, can I eat them and still be entitled to say I live the word of wisdom?
