49. That association with food still exists.
Lots of rural churches have "dinner on the grounds" every Sunday, which is usually lunch in an outbuilding of the church. Everybody brings a dish, and the ladies (and some men) coordinate with each other on which dishes to bring so there won't be too much of one thing. A lot of those people are excellent cooks, and everybody usually eats their fill. Some people will tell you that they mostly go to the Sunday morning service in order to eat afterwards. When I went to church, all I could think about during the sermon was food.
