Mormons eat green jello  - seriously when was the last time you had green jello

 

I have listened to Green Jello quite recently.

Little pig, little pig, let me in!  Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin!

(if you aren't into alternative rock from the very early 90s, you probably don't know what I am talking about and that's OK)

This is not a misconception; many Latter-day Saints do not drink caffeine. They are wise.

My brother's mission president told the mission: if you drink caffeine, you are only 90% Mormon!  :eek:

Teachings on homosexuality? No. 

Questions about the Kinderhook Plates? No. 

Insinuations about the morality of your mother? No. 

Saying that University of Utah could beat BYU in football? No. 

 Want to start a fight between two LDS? Ask each one if LDS can drink a Pepsi.

Breakfast every weekday morning for me: two 20 oz bottles of diet Coke and a pack containing two Twinkies.  Breakfast of champions!  :D

(The funniest part is my little daily ritual costs me only 260 calories)

One word: Utchdorf 

Or one more word: Monson. 

 

If if you are wise you would stay away from so many foods it would make your head spin.

In Arizona it is. I hear it all the time where people think Mormons don’t drink caffeine.  Don’t get me wrong, we should all be healthy but caffeineted drinks is on this list for misconceptions.

What about Elder Uchtdorf? Did you take his "soft drink that shall not be named" comment as some sort of jokey confession to drinking caffeinated soda pop?

The point is that many Mormons do indeed avoid caffeinated drinks. So it's not a misconception.

That's because  by partaking of caffeine, you're paying the devil his tithe.

 To use a more extreme example: Some Mormons don't kill people. That's wise. Or unwise...depending on the situation.

Yup! 

Do you have any evidence of this, other than your interpretation of his mention of soft drinks?

Wrong!

They recorded for years and years as Green Jello until a lawsuit in 1992 brought by Kraft Foods forced them to change their name to Green Jelly:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Jellÿ#Albums

By the time of the lawsuit and subsequent name change, they had already released "Three Little Pigs" under the name "Green Jello", which came out on their 1991 second EP with a title I cannot print here.  As Green Jelly, they would go on to record "333" in 1994, but it was clear that the band was in serious decline and went on hiatus soon after.

With a capital "V", and that rhymes with "C", and that stands for "caffeine"!

I'm surprised you know about The Music Man @Vort. I always assumed it would be much too edgy for your tastes.
