• Poorbadger: "I've got a couple bookmarked but most of them have a couple items, then the next place has a couple more, etc." Ugh, tell me about it!! I have lots of places bookmarked, and I really wished it wasn't just for one or two items each. Here…

• I was with you, ras-saadon (ie:totally drained, mentally tired and disgusted). It is a difficult task! I am not vegan, as I do eat meat in social settings, but it was not on my shopping list, and I don't choose to prepare it at home. So, yeah, setti…

• Oh my goodness! That company is still around- they have an Obama Chia. http://www.chia.com/ BTW- I don't think it would be wise to eat the chia off of those products without finding out if the clay is food safe or not. While on that note: does anyon…

• Apple seeds are toxic if you eat too many! Just don’t eat buckwheat every day, or in large quantity, folks! Variety, variety! Here is an article about buckwheat toxicity. It speaks pretty strongly, BUT the author of the article makes this statement …

• I just recently found the Alima Pure website. I've looked it over well, and seems they don't have any fillers, only minerals. I have found some companies that claim "all natural" but use carmine in their products for color. Sure, it's "natural" but …

• I eat what I want. I never decided to "go raw", it just so happens that most of my favorite foods *are* raw. When I found the raw food community, it was fascinating to see other "grownups" ate that way. (My mom had me convinced that it was childish …

• fuzzywater- the folks at Divacup told me that, when I called to ask what I was doing wrong. They sent the smaller cup for me to try, just in case, but it didn't work either. Both were incredibly uncomfortable. (I am 45, and have had a child.) I even…

• I've tried the Diva cup and was unable to use it. I found out that those of us who have a tilted uterus can not use it; It just won't work, and is incredibly uncomfortable. Unfortunately, they told me this *after* having bought it, and trying it. Bu…

• miss souffle~ you would need to purchase the ones specifically labeled for sprouting. Most, if not all, others have been heat treated to extend shelf life. They can go rancid easily otherwise, from what I've read. Which, by the way, *might* be the b…

• I pointed out the misuse of the word "infer" (rather than "imply") to prove a point. The only reason I did so, was it seemed the folks choosing to use the word "healed" were being picked on for that use. I suppose it was juvinile for me to participa…

• Oh wow, are we hung up on semantics, or what? While we are all on that note, the word you (superfood2) wanted is "imply", not "infer". As in: Folks may infer what is implied. Beyond that, the entire sentence has me pause: "To say we're saving them i…

• Ohhhh, Gag!! rofl. To each his/her own, though. I'm more the John Corbett type. or Matthew McConaughey. Have no idea what they eat, though! If I have to pick a hot raw foodist, I'd say Demi Moore, or Laura Dern. As for the one's already listed here …

• Depends on what you call "know". I've *met* about 7 or 8 last year in a meetup group that got started, and then closed down after two meetings last year. Now there is another one about an hour and a half away from me, and I've been to that one once,…
