Re: Avoid GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms)

I am so glad I never wanted to even TRY Canola Oil - turns out 90% has GMOs. Also I distrusted these ingredients in so many prepared foods, which turn out now to be bad news : "GMOs may be hidden in common processed food ingredients, such as: amino acids, aspartame, ascorbic acid, sodium ascorb...

Re: Avoid GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms)

I have been thinking about this subject since I read maria's post yesterday. It's absolutely overwhelming. Maybe this is why I have a growing aversion to restaurants, especially standard American ones. Dangerous ! I have felt very suspicious about Thai and Vietnamese food for decades now. I used to ...

Re: Elder Ieronymos of Aegina

I so enjoy that type of question posed by Icxpion, not just for this elder but for many, many holy figures ! I love to read any and all accounts. I haven't even heard of this elder, I believe.

Re: Vegan Diet And the Teachings in Holy Scriptures

An afterthought about Debutante balls, these must have been from somewhere where the father gives the party for the daughter and that is called her Debut. Where I went to college in the Northeast, many of my friends had Debutante parties like that. [The girls who didn't were exceedingly jealous by t...

Re: Vegan Diet And the Teachings in Holy Scriptures

What is Coco's ?! You can see I never get out to eat, but I think your friend is right to be very particular. Please tell her someone on Euphrosynos-Cafe is impressed and supporting that choosiness.

Re: Russian Orthodox demand that Apple change its logo

That's interesting, Maria. I never even HEARD of Job's Daughters. What a weird name, I wonder what that was supposed to connote Really great that your ancestors resisted the temptation to keep up Masonic affiliation. I guess my personality and interests are completely opposite to Jonathan's. But mos...
