  • “This video shows exactly how”: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THEdI_gSNQ4 Keep in mind that before hacking at it with a knife, you can put it on the table and keep it steady with another knife or fork jabbed into the white part at the base of the c…
  • To counter my own argument, here’s a quote from Matt Monarch’s Blog… READ THE POST HERE “Did you know that within one hour after you pick a head of lettuce out of the ground, more than half the enzymes are gone? Now imagine that same organic lettuce…
  • Cooked food is harmful. I recommend reading the science behind cooked food, instead of guessing or assuming that it’s safe. The science behind raw food, backed up with clinical trials run by conventional scientists (not raw foodists) is in this book…
  • Hi there – my favorite dressings are olive oil and lemon mixed, or olive oil and lime mixed (goes great on avocado!). This is my creation and it’s fantastic – Sesame Goddess Dressing

  • Eating raw with cause your body to detox. It’s best to include some fats in your diet, so that you don’t detox too quickly. A blog that is AMAZING and will give you tons of info about detox is Cleansing Candida

  • Hi dreasraw – I really recommend purchasing a nutmilk bag. Nothing can substitute for these bags. They’re only $7/bag, you could even get two and they’ll last for years. they’re SO worth the investment.

  • What mamamilk said is true! The young thai coconuts are the answer to your question. Don’t throw out the meat either.. that can be used in a variety of delicious dishes, search ‘coconut meat’ on goneraw for recipes.
  • hi welcome! glad you find this site, it’s a great resource. take a look at these articles too RAW BC almond breeze and soymilk aren’t raw. : )

  • hi nicole! You’re asking if eating too much spinach can be harmful. I don’t know the answer to that question, but perhaps someone else has the nutritional information on spinach. Can you tell us a little more about what you eat? Enjoy raw, and this …
  • sounds like that’s the cheapest option to begin with. and if that doesn’t satisfy, then you can spring for pricier equipment.

  • I have 8 basil plants in pots. They’re doing well! My seed starting trays of 10 kinds of herbs all diet… I think lack of moisture and sunlight were the culprits. Who knows. But basil is nice and hearty. I’ll try to keep some herbs alive on my window…

  • agar is an excellent thickener! be sure to use it properly – look it up online. Agar is used in Sergei Boutenko’s book fresh as the thickener for pies. glad you’re back!!
  • I ordered my excalibur from the company directly. It was free fast shipping, came with teflex and mesh sheets, and they had great customer service. I got the 9 tray with timer. I love the timer – i pop in food before work, and set the timer to let i…

  • In april 08, another person stressed that they did NOT like the products from raw makery. Thread is here Instead, order from Lydia’s Organics here
  • Thanks for the advice!! I’m really glad you posting regarding the flavor. I didn’t want a huge order, only to find that i didn’t like it. Agreed, it is rather expensive. For that price i’d expect the bread to be fantastic, and it’s not.
  • fun idea chris! I’m going to try it. i wonder if it works with spiders and gnats too. i doubt i could have genuinely positive feelings toward spiders though.

  • The formaldehyde thing is a rumor, with no proof to back it up. here is what Matt Amsden says about it: “There was absolutely no indication whatsoever that the Thai Coconut samples provided to Michelson Laboratories was ever in contact with formalde…
    in coconut question... Comment by Winona
  • Matt Monarch has a great post on this at his blog He’s been raw about 11 years, and I think he’s got his head on straight when he gives advice. It talks about detox coming in waves. And also the importance of always maintaining a consistent raw diet…
  • 3,000 GREAT recipes. I’m impressed by the quality of the dishes I’ve prepared through this website. There are some amazing pastas, mexican food, and sauces. Goneraw is my first stop when using a new ingredient. I typically find what I’m looking for!

  • mamamilk – i’ve done most of those things. it saves a lot on bills when most of my entertainment is in the wilderness!
  • You folks don’t spend much on raw food. I spend $100-120 per week for a household of one and pets, plus $40 in raw restaurant food. I buy only organic, and I use nuts/dates/oils – no superfoods. And that’s in spite of having a CSA share! Upstate NY …
  • OMG lavendar oil! Flower oils smell AMAZING and they’re so versatile. They taste good for homemade toothpaste, they smell fantastic.
  • I get my bee products from an acquaintance – I know that the bees are treated like household pets. He’s very kind to them! I buy my bee pollen and honey with pride, and will continue to do so. Like Angie, I will check my facts.
  • Agreed! Well done, Ray and Kandace.
