• Sorry, I just say this because I work at whole foods and I totally dislike the prepared foods department. The only thing that is remotely raw are the sliced peppers and the baby carrots. Everything else is bagged or canned, yuck. Then to come to thi…

• I know for a fact that the prepared foods section carries ZERO prepared raw food meals! The salad bar is shoddy—from the raw standpoint. I definitely say your best bet is perusing the produce department and become creative with your meal. I like to …

• Usually they’re wrapped in cellophane and moisture can get trapped on the bottom resulting in mold. But that doesn’t mean the inside has gone bad. I don’t think there really is a way to tell. You’ll just have to play the game of coconut roulette!

  in How do I tell if a young coconut is bad or has only a little meat before I buy it? Comment by chakra essence
• Luna, I agree 100% with those theories and I have a few theories of my own on our shady government especially when it comes to keeping people sick.

• I like Jojoba, coconut, and honey mixed with either some lavender or peppermint essential oil. (I’m not really a fan of honey, but we have it in the house and it works quite well)

• Oh my!! I can’t stand the taste of papaya seeds. I’ve tried them in smoothies, but the taste is too overpowering! More power to anyone who can actually stomach them!!

• A few weeks ago I had my first purple one, then yesterday it happened again. It tasted alright, not bad, not great. Purple, in my opinion, is the color of a very young coconut.

• Oh the memories, I can remember my first young coconut experience like it was yesterday!!!!! Best thing in the world! I’d almost say they’re magical!! I don’t know what I’d do without these suckers. Also, 1.48 is a pretty darn good price if you ask …

• I love my dehydrator for the simple fact that it keeps me from throwing away food that is starting to go bad and it allows me to be creative with left-over juice pulp. Trust me though, I’d much prefer fresh, hydrated food, but when the device saves …

• I eat WAY too much fruit…I seriously need to control my fruit intake. Sometimes it’s SO hard for me though, because I follow the “rules of digestion.” Supposedly you’re not supposed to eat veggies until an hour passes from the last bite of fruit….we…

  in was wondering.... Comment by chakra essence
• I would think if you froze them the water would one turn into ice chunks around the nuts, and two they would more than likely get stuck together. I don’t think it would work, because as the nuts thaw the moisture will still be there. Why not air-dry…

• I often think about the human body and how everyone of us responds to nutrients slightly different from the next. My boyfriend and I are prime examples. He can eat all the nuts, dehydrated food/fruit, and pretty much whatever raw falls into his hand…

  in What the heck do I do with my potatoes? Comment by chakra essence
• Okay, so we decided to chop them pretty thin with a “wavy” knife. Since we don’t have much vinegar in the house we squeezed a few lemons and limes to cover the potatoes and we topped with a few herbs. (dill, basil, parsly, chives, white pepper, ect……

• I’m keeping my fingers crossed! The Co-op I shop at sells a really good kim chi that is salt free, but they charge $13 for a 16 oz container! So, needless to say, I’m attempting to do on my own!!! I will for sure let you know how it turns out!

• ardesmond2- I’m sure it’s worth it. Even if it doesn’t work out, I’ll at least be able to say I enjoyed the experience. Both of building it and experimenting with different fruits! I’m sure it works fine on sunny days, though. I’ll let you know how …
