• I agree with the above posts! I’m a HUGE supporter of organic farming. But if it comes right down to it and I can’t have organic I will only buy stuff that can be pealed!

• Yeah I forgot to mention that too, I’ve seen lots of recipes posted that people just posted for the heck of it but haven’t even made the dish! Yeah it’s probably good, but who knows… and then you have the people coming along who just like to hand ou…

• I feel ya! I just think as the number of members grow, the harder it will be to enforce “rules”. I don’t know how long I’ve been on this site but all I know is I’ve noticed a huge difference in the way people have gone about posting recipes, not inc…

• I think a lot of people just rate recipes without even trying them. Kinda sucks.

• I try to stick to as much raw food as I can but I do use many spices. Some I use raw some I don’t. But even the non raw dried spices/herbs still retain their medicinal benefits, and therefore I choose to still consume them. I have seen many herbs an…

• I have yet to really come out. My husband is my biggest supporter and that’s about it. As far as everyone else, it seems like my family still can’t get over the fact that I’m vegetarian, so I’m not gonna even bother with telling them the whole raw t…

• It’s not too big of a deal but I have to keep signing back in if I close out the page. Before I would sign in and I would stay signed in no matter how many times I closed the page. It’s convenient to not have to sign in everytime, but not that big o…

• Peppermint and ginger! I believe fennel seed is an antinausea too. Oh and depending on what the nausea is from a littl shot (about 1-2 tablespoons) of straight ACV can totally knock out any sour stomach feelings.

• I’m throwing in my 2 cents on the position that purple means it’s super young! Trust me, you will know if it’s rotten or not, don’t just assume it is just by the color! It WILL smell or taste off if it is rotten and there will be no mistaking it. Th…

  in Purple coconut!? Comment by coconutty
• I agree doing a fast could either be a really good thing or it could turn out to be extremely bad. I wouldn’t risk having it turn out bad, because it may be even harder to reverse. It could strengthen your binging habits times 10. So I would be very…

• I don’t use it anymore but I did notice (since I’ve always burned easy too) that after being raw for about 8 months, when summer came along I had a MUCH higher tolerance for the sun, I was totally amazed, I didn’t burn once!

• Awesome! I’m so excited! Arizona here I come!!! :) We’re already looking into houses. We’ll probably be moving in a couple months. I was really nervous about what the food situation was going to be like but everything sounds like it will be perfect!…

• sunflower seed pate! Sorry don’t have any recipes though. Do a search for some nut/seed pates, changing out for the sunflower seeds shouldn’t make too big of a difference! Roll it up and eat ;-)

  in Wrap ideas??? Comment by coconutty
• Yeah, I don’t waste time stressing about if the raisin I just ate it truly raw or not, I still feel better than I have. Unless you stick completely to fresh fruits and vegetables, it’s hard to be 100% sure if everything past that is really raw. So I…

  in Where to draw the line Comment by coconutty
• Yeah… “careful omissions” is right, there are a lot of facts that were left out. I believe that there was a good amount of false information presented that wasn’t thoroughly researched, or only researched from their chosen postition on the matter. Y…

• I can’t go into the electronic department of most stores. One’s that are more open I can usually stand for a minute or 2 but in most cases I can’t stand it at all. I can barely handle going into Best Buy without getting sick, that store kills me! ..…

• So would this be like a tart then or are you shootin for a pie? The banana mixture… are you slicing the banana or mashing them??? If it’s gonna be a blended mixture I think it will be too runny and won’t hold. Also since bananas are pretty sweet you…

• you can get springforms pretty much anywhere, even target or walmart, any kitchen store will carry them too.

• i was gonna say a pie or something of that nature, but if you have a large class you may need to make a couple pies. Can’t go wrong with a raw pie though!

• They got some great deals on ebay. Especially on the 12 cup or so ones. So how big is your class, how many people are you looking to serve?

• I like the idea of freezing the leftovers. Because you can always find something else that’s fresh and raw. So buy your local fruits during the summer, freeze the leftovers for fall and winter. During fall and winter other produce will be popping up…

• Oh yeah definitely. I got some that I use when I don’t want that strong coconut presence!
