The Amish draw their cuisine from their Swiss-German roots. Being an agro-based culture, their meals are very fresh and do not have the over processed products that the rest of North Americans have on their tables. They bake their own bread from the grains grown in their fields and churn their own butter from the milk of their dairy cows. Their meals are basic but compared to caloric and fat content, the food does have a tendency to be high in those contents. However, being a people of the land they work very hard every day and one will never see a member of their community classed as obese. If you have a local market like I do that has Amish or Mennonite farmers selling their wares at it, but their eggs. Trust me when I say that those eggs are the freshest and best you can get anywhere on earth. Every item that goes on their dinner table has been hand made from scratch in their kitchen.

Do Amish eat people?

The Amish are most certainly NOT cannibals! No Amish do not eat people. they are a peaceful if introvert society that abides by a strict interpretation of the bible and they do not believe in modern conveniences like electricity and cars so they live very basic lifestyles. Also - despite what nuts like PETA and Animal Liberation Front may suggest, animals are not people. The Amish have no prohibition against eating meat. It is part of their diet, but not the major part.
