    What food did Daniel eat ?
  • Chris - In Reply on Daniel 1 - 1 year ago
    Hello Corliss. In Daniel 1:8-16, we see that Daniel & his three contemporaries refused to eat the food or drink the wine given under the king's order. There was something there, not mentioned to us, that would have 'defiled', or made these men unclean. So, they asked to eat pulse & to drink only water. So, the word 'pulse' is a general word that denotes a wide variety of grains; such as, dry peas, chick peas, beans & lentils. So, essentially a vegetarian diet that wouldn't conflict with what was prescribed for the children of God to eat.
