prepared in our factories. That is not the most important matter. Our
work is to show the people how they can obtain and prepare the most
wholesome food, how they can cooperate with God in restoring His
moral image in themselves.
Testimonies for the Church 9:112
Cooking schools are to be held. The people are to be taught how to
prepare wholesome food. They are to be shown the need of discarding
unhealthful foods. But we should never advocate a starvation diet. It
is possible to have a wholesome, nutritious diet without the use of tea,
coffee, and flesh food. The work of teaching the people how to prepare
a dietary that is at once wholesome and appetizing, is of the utmost
importance.
Testimonies for the Church 7:55
Wherever medical missionary work is carried on in our large cities,
cooking-schools should be held; and wherever a strong educational
[22]
missionary work is in progress, a hygienic restaurant of some sort
should be established, which shall give a practical illustration of the
proper selection and the healthful preparation of foods.
Testimonies for the Church 7:126
Some, after adopting a vegetarian diet, return to the use of flesh-
meat. This is foolish, indeed, and reveals a lack of knowledge of how
to provide proper food in the place of meat.
Cooking-schools, conducted by wise instructors, are to be held in
America and in other lands. Everything that we can do should be done
to show the people the value of the reform diet.
The Ministry of Healing, 320-321
The diet reform should be progressive. As disease in animals
increases, the use of milk and eggs will become more and more unsafe.
An effort should be made to supply their place with other things that
are healthful and inexpensive. The people everywhere should be taught
how to cook without milk and eggs so far as possible, and yet have
their food wholesome and palatable.
