• I’ve never used the Blendtec. I use the vitamix 5000 – works beautifully! I love that machine more than anything I’ve ever purchased.

  in Blendtec or VitaMix? Comment by Winona
• You can purchase an electric orange juicer for $30. Those things work like a charm! Or, simply throw the peeled orange in your vitamix, and strain it through a nut milk bag. Juice!

• Hummus is not raw if you purchased it at the store. It’s made with cooked chickpeas. Instead, you can make a raw version at home. Search the goneraw recipes for hummus.

• STEAMBOATKATIE – try eating watermelon that’s not too ice cold. and slow down… space it out and eat it over 45 minutes, instead of all at once. That way your stomach won’t be overload by a ton of freezing liquid.

• Okay folks, remember that water evaporates with heat (100 degrees Celsius), and when it cools it rains. So water isn’t raw. At all. Water never was raw.
