Based on our best data from the White Estate, Ellen White emphasized that food served in Adventist educational institutions, such as Walla Walla, should be wholesome, palatable, and prepared with care. She counseled that students should not be compelled to eat food that is distasteful or unpalatable, and that the best possible food should be provided and served attractively. References: - Ellen G. White, Manuscript Releases, vol. 8, p. 376 - Ellen G. White, Counsels on Diet and Foods, p. 312 - Ellen G. White, Counsels to Parents, Teachers, and Students, p. 297

Ellen White was not in favor of polygamy. According to her writings: - "Polygamy had been early introduced, contrary to the divine arrangement at the beginning. The Lord gave to Adam one wife, showing His order in that respect... God has not sanctioned polygamy in a single instance. It was contrary to his will. He knew that the happiness of man would be destroyed by it." (Patriarchs and Prophets, p. 91.3; 1SP 94.1; 3SG 100.1) - She described polygamy as a "terrible evil" that "tends to dry up the very springs of love, and its influence weakens the most sacred ties." (Patriarchs and Prophets, p. 208.3) - Even when righteous men in the Bible practiced polygamy, Ellen White wrote, "it was no less sin because they became corrupted, and departed in this thing from God's order." (1SP 93.2; 3SG 99.1) In summary, Ellen White consistently taught that polygamy was not God's plan, was never sanctioned by God, and always led to negative consequences. References: - Ellen G.
