  • Hi mango woman, I have created myself a “water routine” which I try to respect no matter what. Before bed I put a tall glass (1 cup) filled (and I mean filled) with water. First thing in the morning when I wake I drink this standing. I then have a s…

  • My days are pretty much all similar. In the workweek, I have breakfast and lunch at work, so it’s go go go. I always eat three big apples for breakfast. It’s pretty busy so it sometimes takes me up to 2 hours to eat them all. I might have a couple o…

  • Juleskess, maybe your “sick amount of fig eating” is causing you that evil gas…? Just a thought.

  • I read in Brigitte Mars’s Rawsome! (p.137) that they’re in season from June to September.

  • Hi AleBrazil, I have read in a raw foods book that you can use your oven for dehydration. Put it at the lowest possible temperature for 24-36 hours (depending on what it is you’re making), and leave the door slightly open. Good luck! josée.

  • Juleskess, how about using red peppers instead? And I’m thinking you used chickory instead of kale….? If it’s chickory, I eat the stems, but not kale stems.

  • Even with herbs such as dill, cilantro, basil, and even parsley. Oh yeah, can’t forget the lettuces, like kale, chickory, arugula and bockchoy.

  • I get funny reactions quite often, especially when buying grapes. I sometimes buy 10 pounds at a time, and when they’re on sale I go crazy (they’re not the cheapest item here)!! I have often gotten from the cashier OR the person behing me in line th…

  • I actually just looked up jicama because I had no idea what it looked like and I can’t seem to find any where I live, and the description mentions the peel is not edible, therefore to confirm Ray’s assumption, it does need peeling.

  • I really like The Complete Book of Raw Food by Baird Rodwell. I also use The Raw Truth – The art of preparing Living Foods by Jeremy A. Safron. Besides this site, I also got many recipes from Rawfoods.com and a book called Raw food made easy for 1 o…

  • Hi countrygirl! First thing, put your tahini in the fridge! This way, you extend its shelf considerably. I’ve just checked my reference guide, and tahini keeps from 8 to 12 months in the fridge. I actually put everything in the fridge, raw crackers,…

  • I read it’s not a good idea to eat the peel (although it’s a good taste) if the kiwi isn’t organic.

  • Has anyone tried chayote? How do you like it? Is it easy to digest?

  • Papayas, papayas, papayas! Lychees are really good too. But they’re expensive here, so my bugdet prefers sticking to apples. I must admit I am addicted to grapes though…

  • I’ve used olive oil before bedtime, and then sleeping with gloves (the winter’s -30 Celsius has really damaged my already fragile hands), but I will try coconut oil, and hope it cures them faster. I’ll let you all know my comparison results.

    in manna bread Comment by System
  • I have read that manna bread is not raw, as the cooking temperature is higher than 118 degrees. If I’m not mistaken, I read this on the Rawfoods.com bulletin board.

  • Your liver stocks the B12 for up to 5 years, but the stock slowly depletes as time goes by. That’s why, as my doctor explained to me, you can go for a certain period of time without B12, but after a while you need to replenish your stocks otherwise …

  • I really enjoy organic unsulfured dried apricots, as well as dried apples and figs. But the minute I read humanimal’s comment, I stopped snacking on my apricots!! Humanimal: I always thought bananas were constipating, that’s why I don’t eat them. I …

  • Hey Nixopan, Thanks for all the info! I actually am on Simply Raw’s mailing list, and I am a member of meetup.com. Simply Raw holds monthly potlucks, but I haven’t had a chance to attend yet. I’d love to meet other raw foodists, you get kind of lone…

  • I have an American-Harvest dehydrator, priced 100$ at Home Outfitters. It comes with 4 trays, 1 full tray for liquidy stuff, and one “teflex” sheet. Works great.
