  • i am reading a book that henri miller passed on to my mom called THE LIFE EVERLASTING (by marie correli). it’s a little fluffy in the way that dickens can be sometimes, but the “teachings” in it are absolutely life changing for me. before that i rea…

  • i would also recommend ani phyo’s, though i have only seen her youtube videos, which were REALLY helpful when i was i trying to learn how to make raw food. VISUALS are very important for me. she’s so so sweet. http://youtube.com/watch?v=qWvu0rKyWY4

  • young@heart. i hear you about the last meal of the day, esp in winter. i think that is more a mental precondition for me, that the last meal of the day be a certain way… but what works for me is doing a few really elegantly prepared. this need not b…

  • hey mango woman—i backpacked all over the pacific rim 2 years ago and tokyo was my first stop. i then took the bullet train to kyoto, saw nara koen, and stayed in fuji goko… didn’t get to go north. i wasn’t raw at the time, so i wasn’t focusing too …

  • i’ve read that legumes have some chemical component in them that gives us gas. when cooked, this chemical is destroyed (along with everything else as you might imagine). if you have sensitivity towards legumes i would steer clear. of course, somethi…

  • i know! i LOVE swimming but i’ve steered clear of the pool since going raw… sad =( but i actually can’t stand the smell anymore! it’s just not inviting at all. i had the pleasure of swimming in a pool that was kept clean with environmentally friendl…
    in To shampoo or not to shampoo? Comment by pianissima
  • that is exactly what happened to me. i attribute this to the coconut butter i was using in place of conditioner. since it solidifies at room temperature, i think that’s why my hair was getting waxy. it finally went away with an acv rinse the other d…

  • omg ron4540_ i had the same thing happen. i just couldn’t believe it. i twas like i was on SPEED. i had a very “watered down” amount of it and i was wired for two days. i never used to eat chocolate before going raw. this is just another one of the …

  • i find adding apple cider vinegar to nut based “cheeses” gives it that fermented “cheesy” taste… but it’s been a while since i had cheese, so i may be forgetting ;)

  • chriscalton—that was really well written. i never know where to start when people ask me why i don’t eat dairy. that was helpful.
    in Raw Cheese Comment by pianissima
  • yes. agreed with chriscalton. a little confused why nama shoyu is even included in the raw pantry. if you are going to have some cooked food, fine… but let’s call it what it is.

  • ok, so my intention is still not to drink wine much, but here is a handy website i found that lists a whole bunch of popular brands of wine and which ones are “vegan friendly” how cool is that? http://tastebetter.com/features/booze/type=wine
    in Is Wine Raw? Is it Vegan? Comment by pianissima
  • i got to this thread through the teenagers post. i had earlier asked about the effects of wine… i’m going to give kombucha a try. i think the main reason i always revert to wine, is, like humananimal i grew up in a “european” setting where wine is c…
    in Is Wine Raw? Is it Vegan? Comment by pianissima
  • mopoke- “regret nothing” is great advice. kandace- the easiest thing i’ve ever done is asked the restaurant to make me a raw salad/meal. bottom line: a raw vegan customer is still a customer and you have every right to get something you want, esp si…
