  • Hemp seeds have a similar nutritional profile and taste much better to me. They’re kind of nutty. I like ‘em.

  • This was discussed a bit elsewhere on here, but no consensus was reached. I definitely start my day with green tea, and love it. It’s not really food, so I think it’s okay to drink hot. And it’s just so good for you!!
    in Green Tea?? Comment by Raymond
  • Very good suggestion – however, I’m reluctant to do so because I don’t want to feel we’re bombarding people with mail! I think we’ll just live with the consequences for now, and send out another newsletter in a month.
  • Sorry, folks, it looks like it happened again! We were down for most of last night, which was really bad timing, because we just sent out our newsletter. Once again, I’m really sorry about the inconvenience.
  • The one thing most useful to vegans is indeed B12 (arguably), but probably it is best in liquid form. Multivitamins are probably not a good idea, I generally rely on a nutritionist (and testing) to know what I need to take, and it’s always one or tw…

  • Assuming you mean this Jicama Fries recipe, I did try it when Kandace made them for us. Yum. I believe they were peeled, but definitely not dehydrated. Handy tip: On the right side of any recipe, you will see an Equipment Needed section (if any equi…

  • Sapphire – Thanks for the great write-up on sweeteners. Very thorough and helpful!

  • Hello Jamie, and welcome to Gone Raw! One suggestion for you: if you’re lacking certain equipment, such as the Vita Mix or the dehydrator, you can go to the recipes page, then on the right side, un-check the equipment that you don’t have. Now, when …

  • Sara, Thanks for the suggestion. If we do add the feature you describe, it probably won’t be for a while. But I do have a suggestion for something you could try in the meantime. If there’s a topic (or topics) you want to follow, for whatever reason,…
  • You might find the raw beauty ideas discussion helpful… seems like avocado and coconut oil work well for folks!!
    in Face moisturizer? Comment by Raymond
  • Hi Sara! You might also find this discussion about juicers helpful.
  • Check out the coconut lesson discussion thread on here. There’s one or two others that might help, as well!
  • Hey, Vaughn. Nice to see you back, haven’t seen you around for a while!
  • Thanks very much for the suggestions! Being able to add photos to others’ recipes is something we plan to eventually add. Searching by ingredients is a good idea… The nutritional information we’re going to do a different way, you have to pay a licen…
  • Hi Jocelyn – thanks for the kind words, and welcome to Gone Raw!
    in love the recipes! Comment by Raymond
  • We are about to add the Frequently Asked Questions section, so we’re still looking for anyone interested in writing some. Fuzzyface had some good ideas above, and eventually, we’d like to have info on the equipment, what words like “vegan” and “raw”…
  • I didn’t delete the recipe, I just marked it “unpublished” because it wasn’t actually a recipe. Sorry, but we do have a policy of only having recipes in the recipe section. I don’t disagree, however, with your prayer suggestion, I’d just rather keep…
  • There have been so many great recipes on here lately, I don’t know where to start… but thanks, everyone! Building this website has paid us back many times over, because we get to enjoy all of the great recipes and discussions too. And that’s pricele…
  • Excellent suggestion, queenfluff, and thanks everyone for your feedback. We’ve got another programmer on board here at Needmore, and we’ll be sure to make some “social networking” features our top priority over the next few weeks, when we work on im…
  • Good suggestion, Debra. Actually hadn’t thought of providing that as an option, would anyone else be interested in that? What we were thinking of, which would avoid email entirely, is setting up a “buddy system” of sorts, which would let you add som…
  • Good point. I still try to eat lots of seaweed, to keep my iodine up. The nori rolls are great for that!
    in IODINE Comment by Raymond
  • That’s a very good question – you might want to see a nutritionist about that. The amount of iodine in table salt, as I understand it, is not nearly adequate for most people. At least, it isn’t unless you eat way too much salt! My nutritionist had m…

  • Hi Justine, welcome to Gone Raw! We hope you find it helpful.
    in Hi, I'm new here Comment by Raymond
  • Sounds great, Audrey… welcome to the site!
  • Whoa, that’s kind of scary. I’ve never heard of that before.
  • I came across another site with great food photography tips: http://www.benjaminchristie.com/article/238/foo…
    in Kandace OR Ray Comment by Raymond
  • We live in lovely Portland, Oregon, where it’s been raining for approximately 832 days straight.
    in Kandace OR Ray Comment by Raymond
  • Here’s a couple tips for the photographers out there, also: This maybe goes without saying, but start with a decent camera. It should be at least “3 megapixels” to get really nice photos, but your mileage may vary. Use a tripod if you can. You can …

  • There’s no way yet to change your login name, but if you write to me personally at rbrigleb at gmail dot com, and let me know what you want it to be, I’ll change it for you. I guess we still do some things “the old fashioned way” around here!
    in Login Name Comment by Raymond
  • While it’s a no-no to post recipes verbatim from a cookbook, and best if you’ve made up your own, you can certainly post recipes inspired by other recipes. It seems like a lot of folks find their own voice pretty quickly once they start trying out a…
