  • A LOT has changed since last Fall . . . for the better. Perhaps the biggest "hole" is that there is no help menu to assist in navigating the site. Several of us put together a Site Use Tips and Hints thread during the transition. Most of what's ther…
  • Suggestions anyone?
  • Anytime I find something I consider offensive or totally inappropriate for GoneRaw, I just click the "Flag as offensive" link and report it to Kandace and Ray as "spam" or something. Personally, I think the less we comment about it, the less likely …
  • GALLON GLASS JARS . . . If you know anyone who works in food service (like a school lunchroom), ask if they get condiments in gallon glass jars. I needed some for a science experiment in my classroom a couple of years ago, and was able to get more t…
  • I've been told by someone really "in the know" that sprouted sesame seeds are also high in calcium.
  • Blueyz, I have a friend in Florida who is from Connecticut. She moved there years ago, and missed Concord grapes so much, she brought a vine down and planted it next to the fence. Her vine is pretty impressive, and has loads of green grapes on it at…

  • Megan Lyne, I have no personal experience with oil pulling, but I'll bump this to the front page for you. I know there are several "oil pullers" on the site and there have been previous discussions . . . but I think it's been a while. If you haven't…
  • I heartily recommend digestive enzymes. I keep some on hand for those occasions when I eat something unraw.
  • Cares, you might want to double check the link. This one is a Len Foley clip talking about "Member Site Empires". He does mention David's popularity in the raw community, but only in passing . . . nothing about being dissatisfied with anything.
  • On another thread, daniefon offered this: "I usually soak it in the refridgerator until it starts to split. it seems to me that it takes a couple of days. I change the water daily." There is also some information on sprouting rice at sproutpeople.co…

  • There have been a number of discussions on this subject in the last several months. Here's the link to a search for diuretics. This thread, although speaking specifically to pregnancy, seems to have a lot of good information. I personally use the ju…
  • So glad to hear your emergency is over. The vodka suggestion was one of 15 hints I received in an email. I would have sent you the complete list, but couldn't find your addy. If you'd like to see the complete list, you can email me and I'll forward …
  • RCBAlive, this is probably a silly question, but have you checked with the supplier of your crock, both regarding the mold issue in the stones and purchasing replacement stones? I'm guessing the stones are not of the same "material" as the crock (no…
  • RCBAlive, haven't seen you online in a while. Don't know if you've been away, or we just haven't been on at the same time. But it's good to hear from you. I don't know anything about a Fermentation Crock, but this will bump you to the front page. Go…
  • Try an Advanced Recipe Search. There are recipes on Gone Raw for FRIES . . . sweet potatoes and jicima come to mind; BACON . . . using eggplant, to name one variation; and numerous recipes for CHEESE . . . from a velveeta type to cream cheese and ev…
  • Try a recipe search for "pulp". There should be quite a few ideas here on Gone Raw that will get you started with using left over pulp. If all else fails, compost, or start a worm bin. Check out worm bins on the Internet. I know Bitt had one last ye…
  • According to Raw Guru they can be frozen whole. I have several in the freezer at the moment . . . note to self: Defrost and use coconuts soon.. http://www.rawguru.com/store/raw-food/organic_wild_young_coconuts.html (paragraph 3)
  • Check out this user created thread. Site Use Tips and Hints. If you are still having trouble navigating, just ask. Some of the new features are a little tricky at first, but I think they are well worth taking the time to gain proficiency. . . . and …

  • For me personally I think sunflower seeds are the easiest to digest. I soak hulled seeds for about 24 hours, then sprout them until they have tails about half the length of the seed. Then I dehydrate them until they're nice and crunchy. I eat them a…
  • According to Stanley Burroughs book the water should be distilled water. That's what I've always used, and it works fine. I also found cayenne in liquid form at an herb shop. It's a bit pricey, but blends in easily with the lemonade, and I've been u…
  • While not the ideal fix for finding personal recipes, a few users have located their recipes and then added the URLs to their user profile for quick access.
  • For assistance in navigating the new and improved (and stable . . . YEAH) Gone Raw, check out this user created thread: Site Use Tips and Hints. Click on your user name in the top right corner to go to your profile.
  • From your profile click on "Track". Everything you have ever posted (forum topics and recipes) is in that file. It's arranged chronologically by most recent activity. Several users have asked that the recipes be moved to a separate tab like they wer…
  • According to several sites that market raw cashews, whole cashews with the bud still intact will sprout and grow. For my personal use, if it will sprout I consider it raw. http://www.detoxyourworld.com/acatalog/cashews.html http://www.eatraw.com/Pro…
  • I've never tried, but can you sprout cashews? If so, try to sprout them.
  • Yeah . . . fresh figs are the best. I lost most of my fig tree to a bad storm a couple of years ago, but left the remains of the trunk. Last year the tree decided to come back to life. The other day I noticed 3 lovely little green figs on it. The bi…

  • People, we really need to be aware of what is going on in Washington and with the WHO. We can discuss all the intricacies of a raw diet until . . . BUT if there is no more quality to our food, our conversations will have been for naught. Here's anot…
  • I just Googled "homemade hair spray recipe" and there are tons of recipes on the web. You might find something there that meets your needs.

  • I have not used shampoo in 7 months . . . use baking soda followed by a vinegar rinse instead. That said, I struggled with what spray to use, as my hair is very limp without some assistance. I have been using an aloe vera styling spray from Aloe 80 …
