How About Seconds On Pie?

Plain, simple pie may serve as dessert, but when one eats two or three pieces merely to gratify appetite he unfits himself for the service of God. Some, after partaking largely of other food, will take dessert, not because they need it, but because it tastes good. If they are asked to take a second piece the temptation is great, and two or three pieces of pie are added to the load placed upon the already overworked stomach. He who will do this has never educated himself to practice self-denial. ^{20Counsels on Diet and Foods, 333.}LASW 132.4
