  • Hi Urban Gorilla and yr g’friend. Going raw is the best thing you can do for yourself and your health. I do not know what to do with Daikon radish recipe wise but I often shred all sorts of veggies into my salads. I use the large holes on the grater…

  • What are guineps? They do not sell or eat fresh corn in Italy, they feed it to animals and sell only in the canned version. I DREAM of young milky silver queen, mmmm, never appreciated these things when I was an omnivore. I will be back in the US fo…

  • Hi rawdancer, Apples are good for mono meals, as are melons all types. I have eaten apples for lunch at times, or had an entire melon at dinner. Easy to digest, soothing, comforting fruit. What’s not to love? Have a great day :) deasmiles
