• I just go off that each banana is about 7 oz on average. So, 20*7=140oz= 8.75 lbs. Of course, they might have been smaller bananas but even if they were half the size 4 pounds is still a lot of food, and its a *lot* of sugar. I don't know, maybe tha…

• I mean, I don't even know, what is the percentage difference of sugar in fruit vs. vegetables? Does anyone actually know this data or do they just have a vague assumption of "fruit = high sugar, vegetables = low sugar or no sugar"? What is the amoun…

• I think its ridulous to assume such a thing about someone, before considering that maybe you don't have all the details. Or *gasp* maybe you have some type of misconception. Its at least worth asking for more details, before making an accusation... …

• Yes but the body is adaptable, and even us high and mighty raw vegans barely know anything compared to everything that there is to understand. If a human being can live on the SAD then I don't think its a stretch to think a human being could live on…

• I would recommend try eating some cooked whole grains / other starches before you go back to bread. The more whole the better. I.e. quinoa, beans, rice, etc. If that helps you out emotionally to abstain from bread, then it would be a better option. …

• The most common almond butters, like at Trader Joe's and Whole Foods, are not raw. Since mainstream almonds have to be pasturized, these jars of "raw almond butter" can't be raw either. And since truely raw almond butter is way too expensive for me,…
