  • LOL, Zoe, I’m watching the part in the video where Sergei is eating the romaine lettuce straight up.
  • Well this is an interesting discussion, haha. Luna blu – WOW, I thought I was the only one that thought Aragorn in LoTR was hot! Wayyy cuter than Legolas/Orlando Bloom. He’s almost too pretty, IMO.
  • Wow, this is definitely a TMI post, lol.
  • Wow, dark orange?? seriously?
  • Yeah!!! That’s the one, the chocolate sauce by Angie. I also love making sherbert with frozen mango chunks in the blender. It’s so simple and easy, but tastes awesome.

  • There was one called chocolate dipping sauce I really liked. I tweaked it a little, and used more agave nectar and less oil. I ate it with a spoon, and it really helped my chocolate cravings. :)

  • So what exactly does USDA want to DO to the leafy greens? Pasteurize them or put chemicals on them to kill the E. Coli??
  • yeah, i read about it and I don’t think I’ll ever try it. It sounds awful.
  • well, I personally don’t give it that much thought. It’s important, but if you have a strong digestive system and you can handle “bad” combinations, I don’t think it’s that big of a deal…but that’s just my opinion and I’m not a professional. :P
  • I’d say just take it one step at a time… all I can remember so far is not to eat any kind of melons (like cantaloupe, watermelon, honeydew melon…) with anything else, and to not eat avocados with nuts, and not to eat nuts with dates (but I still do …
  • i agree. I never think about calories anymore and it’s really great not to have to read labels anymore!

  • Wow, I guess I’m not the only one that messed up this weekend, lol. On Friday I ate a piece of cake at my friend’s birthday party, and on Saturday I had a bunch of fried scallop tempura, and felt HORRIBLE. I thought I was gonna die, and almost threw…
  • LOL!!! You ate dog treats? that’s hilarious… I used to eat cat treats all the time when I was 8. I loved the fish flavored ones. Lol…

  • I’ve had this happen too!!! I got sundried tomatos with sulfur as a preservative because I couldn’t find any without, and it tasted bad and made me feel nauseated. But I soaked them in some filtered water for a while and made some tomato dressing in…
  • Yay! Thanks, I love finding new raw websites and bookmarking them.
  • I use bare minerals for pretty much everything except eyeliner, which is Loreal Paris. oopsie. I don’t wear eyemakeup very often though, so it’s not too much of a big deal for me. I want to get some Dr. Hauschka’s makeup sometime…

  • Sweet, I wish I had a Whole Foods closer to where I live…but it’s like an hour or something away :/
    in woohoo!! Comment by rachel_akiko
  • Wow, that’s a really cool blog. It’s interesting that she doesn’t have to force her kid to eat raw, and he seems to like it, lol
  • It’s not raw, but it’s fermented so it has lots of live enzymes and cultures in it, and it’s rich in B12. It’s important for raw food vegans to get B12 supplements; a lot of people use bee pollen.
  • I’ve actually never used supplements before, so I’m wondering if (and where) I should get some. :/

  • Aww, he/she does kind of look like a gummy bear!
  • It could be your makeup. Do you use makeup a lot?

  • I’ve gotten that error message a lot too when I try to change my pic. I just refresh and then try again, or delete the history and cookies and then try again.
  • I found Let’s Do Organic shredded unsweetened coconut at my local Hy-Vee for like TWO BUCKS , actually. I’ve never ordered food off the internet before, so I’m kind of hesitant to do that, I guess.
  • Winona!! I was JUST about to post about the article on We Like It Raw since I just read it today, but you beat me to it. :(
    in No period? Comment by rachel_akiko
  • Mine skipped last month too, and it’s only the second month I’ve been raw. Lol, I hope it’s not gone for good, because I do wanna have kids someday.

  • heyitsmahsa – No, I don’t usually eat a lot of Dagoba. I did the first few weeks I started out raw, because I was having these intense chocolate cravings. Now if I want chocolate I have some raw cacao nibs with some agave nectar. YUM!
  • For breakfast I had some green juice, for lunch I had diced avocado and mango sprinkled with sea salt and cayenne, and for dinner I had a Dagoba chocolate bar (not raw, but at least organic. and it had maca in it! yay!)
  • I just bought five organic Medjool dates at a Hy-vee in a dusty bin, but they seemed fine too me. Kind of sticky, though. I don’t think yours are infected with an insect, though! eww.

  • I used to hate tomatos, and I couldn’t even eat any because I would gag, but now I like them chopped up in a salad with avocado. I still can’t eat them all by themselves yet, though. I like to marinate my mushrooms in olive oil, some lemon juice, an…
