minus-squarebarkingspiders@infosec.publinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up35·1 year agoI think that one is for the Mormons? I’m like 85% sure they think caffeine is against their religion.

minus-squareMouselemming@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 year agoWould iced coffee be okay then? Or they decide hot meant caffeine?
minus-squarethearch@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up5·1 year agoIced coffee is also not allowed if it has caffeine

minus-squaretrashcan@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoYeah, no tea either. Guess they get their 8 cups a day.

minus-squarePennomi@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoHot drinks is the scriptural term, but is officially interpreted as “coffee bean” and “tea leaf”. So you could have peppermint tea, but not tiramisu.
