What does Ellen White write about...

Adventistische Schriften über: "What did she eat for breakfast?"

Answer

Ellen G. White usually took her meals twice a day, with breakfast typically occurring at seven o'clock in the morning. Her preferred foods included whole‑grain or corn‑flour muffins (called “Gems”), often spread with honey or thick cream. The meal was complemented by simple foods such as bread, fruit, milk, and occasionally eggs from her own chickens.

Simple and Nutritious Meals

»One of my favorite foods prepared in her house were whole‑grain or corn‑flour muffins, called “Gems”, spread with honey or thick, sweet cream. She kept her own chickens and fed them grain. These fowl supplied the eggs that were used in her house. Her five cows provided the milk that she and the family drank... The cream from the milk was used in place of butter.«

Breakfast Times and Simple Fare

»Our simple food, which we take twice daily, we enjoy with great satisfaction. We have neither meat nor cake nor heavy dishes on our table. We use no lard, but instead milk, cream, and a little butter... We have breakfast at seven o'clock and eat lunch at one o'clock.«

Breakfast While Traveling

»Thus, to carry out our plan, we bought bread, fruit, and milk in the evening and asked that dishes be brought to our rooms so that we could prepare our own breakfast.«

Why I built EGW Vision

Hello, I am Stephan Krol. I started this Ellen White website to make the writings of Ellen G. White and the Adventist pioneers easier to access for everyone.

EGW Vision helps you find topics, statements, and quotes faster, especially when many original sources are not yet fully available in your language. The tool searches semantically, groups relevant content by topic, and presents matching results as clearly as possible in your language.

My hope is that this tool supports personal Bible study, strengthens trust in the original sources, and helps more people discover the message of these writings with clarity, depth, and joy.
