I enjoy the soothing delight of butter-scotch whilst ruminating on the sermon; unless of course I am the one preaching it, in which case I abstain for the sake of those sitting on the front row.
This is a practice I want to take up!
The mints or the bare feet on chairs?
Rather than seeing this as a cute cultural tradition, I see it as a horrible necessity brought on by a terrible culture of almost intolerable boringness in the worship: Faced with an ecclesiastical situation they could not change, the faithful found a way to stay awake and try to engage their being in the worship service. Some people love boring and so they eat stimulants to stay awake. Others, well, others leave.
Perhaps I'm the only one shaking his head about the obvious indictment of an entire tradition's services which are such that people literally need a stimulant to stay awake during the sermon.
