  • I’ve been buying large bags of nuts and seeds, organic green tea (for kombucha), sprouting seeds and various other organic things. I also bought some heirloom seeds to plant. It doesn’t hurt to be prepared. These things will get eaten. I live in ran…
  • Sweet potatoes bring back bad memories and I can’t make myself eat one now. My mom used to bake them with brown sugar and marshmallows and I had an experience at the table that I will leave you guessing about! I was never told to clean my plate agai…
  • I’ve never bought any nut butter because it seems too much lke processed food. Apparently, Maranatha IS processed food!
  • I have an autoimmune disease and nama shoyu doesn’t cause me any problems. Raw tomatoes do. You have to know your own body and not go by studies. I never seem to fit the mould. Millions of people eat cooked food everyday and most of them don’t have …
  • They’re both made from cooked soy, but the fermentation is live! Seasalt is a good replacement, but both miso and nama shoyu have unique flavors.
  • I don’t shave when no one sees it, winter, but if I were to wear a tank top or shorts, you bet I would shave! Vanity has returned since my health has improved! I want to look as good as I feel.
  • Mine didn’t last for 6 months, well, some might. I still have several packages. I flip them once in awhile now so the tops of the noodles are in liquid. I should try soaking them. I just rinsed and drained them when I ate them before.
  • I bought a case of Sea Tangle noodles. I thought that it might be easy to eat 12 packges in several weeks. It isn’t! One package is enough for two meals (for me) and several of the noodles have dried at the top and are inedible. Find someone to shar…
  • I would think that it has a preservative added.
  • Soy Alert! Weston Price Foundation. http://www.westonaprice.org/soy/index.html

  • Breads, crackers, granola (my favorite). I sprout it, dehydrate it and mix in various seeds, nuts, and fruits.
  • I don’t eat any beans or grains. I eat buckwheat, but it’s a fruit, not a grain. I do occasionally eat alfalfa sprouts (legume), but rarely. I eat fermented soy (nama shoyu, miso), but in tiny amounts for the taste, not the protein.
  • Spirulina may not be the main source of B-12 in the diet. I posted a link to B-12, on another thread, by Dr. Vivian Vetrano who says that most vegans produce enough B-12 in their bodies. Not having enough B-12 might mean that there is a condition th…

  • flybaby, where did you get this information? I’ve never heard this and a search on the internet showed nothing to substantiate this claim. In fact, there are hundreds of websites that say that it’s beneficial to health.

  • There are several “superfood” protein products that I have used in the past. Nutiva hempseed protein powder, Nutribiotics rice protein powder and Boku raw, vegan, organic, kosher, Superfood. All are good, Boku is the best because it also contains a …

  • Yes, I’m a huge Ron Paul supporter. Meetup isn’t a term exclusive to RP, but the groups that support him use that term for their meetings. I am terribly concerned for this country because we’re jumping from the frying pan into the fire with the thre…
  • aspire, you refer to your meetup group. That’s a Ron Paul advocate term. Are you a RP supporter?
  • Amy, I’m sure that you have more than one interest. The food/hosptality industry is one in which you make your customers happy. People who order pizza would not be happy with a green smoothie. Customer satisfaction is inline with your interests. I w…

  • I’ve been a raw vegan for several years and I live on the premises of my family’s store and restaurant. They still use the recipes for chili and chicken fried steak that I created years ago. It doesn’t bother me one bit. Most people that stop here l…

  • If you’re asking me, yes, I can get dried coconut, but it isn’t the same texture in recipes…is it?
  • Good question Snoopy. I can’t get raw Thai coconuts here and I don’t want to order them online. I see young coconut meat in a recipe and I move on. There are some recipes that I would like to try…with a substitute for coconut.
  • I saw a site that uses dried coconut and water, blended and strained like nut mylk, if necessary. It might have been The Sunny Raw Kitchen that does that.
  • “They ARE trying to make and keep us sick.” It’s called depopulation and it isn’t just the US government that’s involved.
  • I just had my blood pH tested. I don’t have the results yet. It was a blood gas test and it uses arterial blood, OUCH! Different parts of the body need to be acidic and blood should be alkaline. Litmus tests aren’t accurate guides.
  • I don’t eat grains. I eat sprouted buckwheat occasionally, technically a fruit.
  • They make a lot of soup on Sunny Raw Kitchen. I like the add-ins that make the soup more of a meal than a savory smoothie.
  • Kelp noodles are great, not fishy but crunchy and moist. They remind me of long mung bean sprouts, excellent in salads and Oriental dishes.
  • My favorite soup lately has been serendipitous. I added water to the pesto sauce that I couldn’t spoon out of the blender (just to clean the blades). I didn’t add much, just enough to cover the blades. I tasted it, it was great, so I poured it in a …
  • Dr. Robert Atkins died from a fall on the ice at age 72. He did not have cardiovascular disease. His company did go bankrupt following his death.
  • Fruits and vegatables have been hybridized for centuries. They don’t bother me like genetically modified foods do. I was concerned with seedless watermelons and grapes for awhile, but I decided not to sweat the small stuff. Chemically or genetically…
