I make my own! Check out my recipe!

in Lara Bars! Comment by Quiora

RawKidChef-Mickmaster did not say we don’t need protein! And neither did anyone else! You’re taking it completely out of context! He only said that the need to combine foods to make “complete proteins” is a total myth that has been dis-proven. Maybe…

RawKid-Yes the cashews grew tails. I didn’t let the almonds go long enough to grow big tails since I read somewhere not to. But the end was swollen, and when I broke them open, there was a tail like thing going down the middle and just about coming …

in almonds that WILL sprout?! Comment by Quiora

The only downside is TJ’s raw cashews aren’t organic. :(

in almonds that WILL sprout?! Comment by Quiora

Yep, I let them soak for 3 hours with no intention of sprouting them, and they literally grew tails!

in almonds that WILL sprout?! Comment by Quiora

Trader Joe’s has organic raw Valencia almonds imported from Spain, and they sprouted for me. However, the non-organic California grown almonds from there do not sprout. Even TJ’s raw cashews sprout. :)

When I tried uploading pics, I figured out they were too big, so I had to resize them.

in why can't i post a new profile pic? Comment by Quiora

I know exactly where you’re coming from, and I’ve just decided it’s not worth it to be so hard on myself. I probably won’t ever be 100% raw, and that’s ok. I’m alright with eating raw when I can and when I want to (which is about 75% of the time) bu…

Yeah, I heard about it on here actually. I think its awesome!

in I need more calories and protein!! Comment by Quiora

Thanks jessica!! That is exactly what I was looking for. Now I just need to find some lower fat foods that are high in protein…

in How many calories, etc...? Comment by Quiora

I don’t know of any specific sources to give you except my personal experience. I’ve had GERD since I was 11 due to bulimia. Being vegan pretty much cured it but I had occasional symptoms. (1-2 episodes per week as opposed to multiple times per day.…

in GERD in children-HELP? Comment by Quiora

MemberInGoodStanding-I have bought cashews and almonds from Trader Joe’s and they both sprouted for me.

in Please read this article about raw nuts! Comment by Quiora

Thanks RawDance! I will put them in my green smoothie in the morning along with kale, maybe spinach, and lots of sweet fruit. I kind of want to try it now, but I’m not hungry, hehe.

in carrot tops Comment by Quiora

I liked dates for the first couple days of trying raw (still not 100%), but then I got sick and threw up and the last thing I had eaten was my homemade version of a lara bar. Since it was so heavy in dates, I haven’t been able to eat them since. I h…

in I don't think I like dates...am I out of the club? Comment by Quiora

I am so sorry you had to deal with this, Moth. :( I have never had someone ridicule me that badly, but I am also not 100% raw. Sometimes I just want to scream at people for little things ridiculing my diet. Yesterday at work, I was eating 2 huge app…

in The worst raw-food confrontation I've ever had Comment by Quiora

Hey sid! I am in Seattle too! Where is this co-op you speak of? ;)

in The worst raw-food confrontation I've ever had Comment by Quiora

Oh, and you mentioned Trader Joe’s. I work there (the one in the u-district) and accidently discovered that the cashews are genuinely raw. They sprout at least, so I think they must be. The organic valencia almonds there are also raw (and sprout), b…

in Anyone from Seattle? Comment by Quiora

I live in Seattle and I heard there is a raw store/small restaurant opening on Roosevelt in the U-district. It is called generation thrive or something like that. I’m really excited for it to open! BTW-I also love Chaco Canyon! I was actually offere…

in Anyone from Seattle? Comment by Quiora

Hi Johnny, I was so glad to see you posted this! I think simple raw is going to work best for me right now too. Tonight I pretty much had a breakdown. I cried for two hours about nothing, or so I thought. Then I realized it was because I was feeling…

in Simple RAW Comment by Quiora

That’s really good to know melaverde! I like to eat them while still greenish…so that could be my problem! Maybe I will try to let them ripen more and put them in smoothies. (They are just too sweet and mushy for me to eat like that)

in too many bananas? Comment by Quiora

I was having some “fiber” issues and someone suggested to me that bananas may cause constipation. I stopped eating bananas the last few days and no more constipation. I will probably eat a few a week, but not 2 or 3 daily like I was doing.

in too many bananas? Comment by Quiora

I am really in need of support too!! This is really hard!! I’m nearing the end of day three and I can’t fathom another week of this. How do you do it?! I haven’t cheated and I won’t as long as I’m spending so much money on it. I want to do it proper…
