• Yes, you can smell and taste the vinegar when dehydrating and in the chips. What kind of taste are you looking for? For marinating, there are several things you can use. Vinegar, lemons/limes, nama shoyu, olive oil. You could make a marinate out of …

• Glad you enjoyed them. Everyone seems to have a taste for potatoe chips lately – we talking about them at a raw potluck last night. I don’t deserve any credit for this – The recipe is from Alissa Cohen’s Living on Live Food Book. :)

• Not all the nightshade plants produce a fruit or berry – some are herb producing. But they are all flowering plants. So, there isn’t really a definatae way to to say this is a nightshade – you sort of need to know which ones are in the nightshade fa…

• Sounds like you might be sensitive to the cacao? It does have theobromine in it which can be a stimulant. MSM is supposed to help with achy muscles plus it speeds detox.

• ha ha! “holy mother of cracker..” :) Yeah, I have had the Happy day mousses too. I have had the vanilla and the chocolate. I ended up using them in smoothies more than just eating them – the chocolate worked very well. :)

• Another idea is an cheese slicer if you have one – it can be hard on the wrist a bit but you can control the size of your slices. Other than that the vegetable peeler will be your best bet.

• Samilicious – I think you would just make the Hemp Milk and go from there. Just make your raw ice cream like you would with almond milk. runnagurl’s Hemp Milk recipe looks good. The other thing I was going to say is to just make it like you would an…

• OOO, its yummy. Maybe a bit of an acquired taste for some but add some agave and it is good. I had some at a place in SF called Judadilicious. They have the milk and the ice cream. Hemp is very nutritious too so if you can have some I say definatley…

• If you are in the central cali, maybe you can balance out your icky mill tour with a trip to an organic almond farm to get some farm fresh raw unpasteurized almonds! :)

• I use natural wax paper sprayed with olive oil in my dehydrator. I don’t even have any nonstick sheets. The only drawback to this is that you can’t reuse the wax paper. Just use a light coating of olive oil (or other raw oil of your choice)

• I am not sure about helping with the estrogen stuff but hemp seeds I believe are also good for the omega-3’s. So might be a good alternative. Not to mention they have TONS of other things that are great for you. They are high in protein and are very…

• When they send the supplements to you, they need to mark it as a “gift” on the customs form in order to allow it. At least, that is my understanding.

• I use the Merry Hempsters stuff – it tastes a little weird but hemp oil is really moisturizing. Shea butter is very moisturizing too but I don’t know if it nice to use on your lips – it might not taste great.

  in Anyone else not like dehydrated food? Comment by queenfluff
• Yes, it is your dehydrator. Those round dehydrators really aren’t for the raw life style – they are for dehydrating little bits of fruit and veggies. You need a “real” dehydrator than you will know how good dehydrated stuff can be. :) Right now, I h…
