So; fellas...
...are your wives glad that cold weather is now here and they can eat MEAT again?

When the word of wisdom was written there was no refrigeration. It was unwise to eat any meat that was more than a few hours old in the summer. Times change. The Mormon prophets have said that eating meat sparingly is wise and doctors agree with them.
I do believe my dear wife follows this passage;
D&C Section 49, verses 18-19 read; “And whoso forbiddeth to abstain from meats, that man should not eat the same, is not ordained of God.
For, behold, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the air, and that which cometh of the earth, is ordained for the use of man for food and for raiment, and that he might have in abundance.”
...but not this one...
D&C 89, verses 12 and 13 read; “Yea, flesh also of beasts and of the fowls of the air, I, the Lord, have ordained for the use of man with thanksgiving; nevertheless they are to be used sparingly;
And it is pleasing unto me that they should not be used, only in times of winter, or of cold, or famine.”
It’s just all so confusing and conflicting...
