Beth, I tend to agree with you. I believe that we should offer thanks for our food and ask God to bless it to the nourishment of our body. A friend told me his prayer over food was "may the best of you become the best of me". A spirit of thanksgiving and faith are so important, I do believe in asking God to bless our food. I also believe He created our bodies to know what we need. Even when certain food may not be what we want, or what we think we need, we can know what is best for us at any given time in our life. The problem is yielding to the carnal mind and its desire for good tastes and instant pleasure.
