• I would hate making smoothies in a food processor, they are so hard to clean. I have a VItaMix blender, and LOVE it. Before that I used a Cusinart blender, and they difference in the two is night and day. A good blender is definitely worth the inves…

• Bump, hey peeps just thought I would bump this up to the surface. Fund raising is going a little slower than I expected. Please take a moment to check out or project. Everybody who donates at least $5 gets a free energy bar!

• No, that is why we are soliciting "donations" for our startup funding. But each giving level does receive a gift. Thanks. My business partner and I are both very excited about the venture.

• Lucky vitamin is my favorite place, although lately they seem to be out of a few things I normally get, such as raw hemp seed protein, but you can't bet there prices. A lot of them are close to wholesale.

• The only time I ever have this happen is when I am using a heavy amount of fresh greens and water as the base. Doesn't happen when I use a greens powder. I think it has to do with the break down of the cell wall in the greens. Do you happen to have …

• This is why I am not 100% raw. I have friends who first introduced me to raw foods that were 100% raw vegan, but eventually gave it up because the were ostracized by friends. They didn't get invited to social events because people didn't know how to…

• You may not like my advice, but don't kick yourself over this. There is more to life than food. I merely eat a high raw diet and am content with that. You don't HAVE to be 100% raw. If you enjoy a cookie now and then or a cooked meal then go for it.…

• What are you using to make them? A juicer or a blender? I have had good and bad results with my Vitamix. Sometimes it comes out creamier than other times. I haven't quite figured it out either, but I do know if you are using something other than a V…

• missemy, if you are new to raw your symptoms could be detox. I was very foggy headed for several weeks, if not months. It seemed like it lasted forever. My body was pretty toxic though. Hope you start feeling better soon.

• Get the 9 tray. You won't regret it. I'm single and the only one in my house that uses the thing. I occasionally have ALL 9 trays full, or at least 9 spaces, sometimes drying things that take up more than one level. Every time I have that puppy full…

• I've made one that uses oak grouts, raisins and some other ingredients. I will have to try and find the recipe for you and post it. All I know is I remember it being VERY good. Could hardly believe the cookies were raw.

• Oh, and one more thing. Only time I have gotten a "funny" feeling after eating something that was questionably bad was avocado. It had been on a salad for a dressing so I couldn't really tell how much the color had turned. Now if I make an avocado b…
