"Los indios creeks y seminoles celebraban en año nuevo, cuando recogían el grano, un ayuno de dos días antes de consumir una "bebida negra" que purgaba los estómagos. Este rito de purificación se realizaba antes de consumir el grano nuevo de las cosechas, como una forma de evitar la contaminación de éste (comunión del dios cereal) con los alimentos mundanos. Ese día quemaban sus pertenencias viejas" — 4 hours, 51 min ago
