• Like Pianissima, not into Angelica’s. What about Caravan of Dreams on E. 6th between 1st ave & ave A? That place is great.

• Manna bread isn’t raw either, but as Elizabethh wrote, is easier on the system than other cooked breads.

  in I hope this is raw 'cause I just had it for lunch.... Comment by Audrey
• There’s never any need for fancy recipes – fancy recipes are composed of fruits, vegetables, seeds, and nuts – so there’s no difference in just eating them as is. That said, if you were to get any contraption or do anything to your food, you might w…

• How about a green smoothie every morning for breakfast (i.e. 2-3 cups of greens, such as kale or chard, a banana, and 1-2 cups of pineapple), a salad with your favorite raw vegetables and nuts for lunch (olive oil, a squeeze of orange, and some salt…

• Tamisha, you also can start by transitioning from wheat bread and pasta to easier to digest and less processed versions, such as brown rice pasta and sprouted grain bread (like Ezekiel). I included these things in my diet for awhile and it really he…

• My favorite green smoothie is kale, red chard, banana, and mango. It’s fabulous!

• Probably calculated through sheer guesswork. You can think about it in terms of how many of your approximately 21 meals a week you eat raw—i.e. if you’re eating 2 non-raw meals a week, that’s 90% raw. Or you can think about it in terms of whether yo…

• Queenfluff, the base for the farmer’s cheese is soaked cashews, white miso, salt, and a little water. The blue manna doesn’t taste like blue cheese—I don’t know that it even has a particular taste; but it was literally bright blue (from the algae) a…

• Cool, thanks! I want their hemp soft serve.

• I used to live on Lincoln x 16th, so it would have been a lovely bike ride…I’ll have to check it out next time I’m back in town. What do you like to eat there?

• Queenfluff, they only have it sometimes…I may have had it at the one in the Mission, but definetly had it many times at the one in the inner Sunset. I think I had it with some appetizer sampler—with olive tapenade and pesto and crackers and some oth…

• Oh, STOP…I used to live six blocks from Cafe Gratitude and miss it constantly! I was obsessed with the “blue manna”—a cheese made with blue-green algae. And the margarita made with sole!

• The adjustment period will completely depend on what your food intake and lifestyle was before you transition, along with your psychological makeup. I’ve been at 90-100% raw for about three months, and find that I’m still going through waves of deto…

• Or maybe a carrot cake-like cookie, with raisins and walnuts and cinnamon?

• Awillow, the aloe vera gel I use is from Trader Joe’s—it’s in a bottle and cut with a little alcohol and is easily spreadable.

• I use aloe vera gel.

• Thanks pianissima! :) I do feel like I need the salt…but then I always do well with a lot of salt. This feels different—I really do think I’m in some major detox phase again and some old junk is being cleared via the ‘weed. Karuna: take a sheet of r…

• Thanks Lucy + have_mersey. (She says, stuffing double layers of nori in her mouth.) Kelp for president!

• Zoe, what is the Innika website? I tried to Google it but couldn’t find it.

• Before: watermelon. After: watermelon. Basically, I figured going raw would be fine by me because it still involved watermelon.

• You have to admit that making a joke about murdering carrots is pretty funny. And that just because we’re cool with fruitarianism and we get it doesn’t mean we can’t or shouldn’t laugh at the joke. If everyone was completely serious about everything…

  in survey for my book-whats your sign Comment by Audrey
• I feel like I’ve been avoidant about hanging out with friends in the context of meals, which I don’t like, because I end up isolating myself to some degree. I don’t have a problem with being around others when they’re eating whatever, but I still fe…

• I first got into raw foods when I lived in NYC. You will find fellow raw foodists! Especially in the East Village. Check out Caravan of Dreams on 6th…I think between 1st and A, or A and B.

• Pianissima, you’ve been able to stay raw all this time…you WILL be able to keep away from alcohol, if you so choose. Remember that! And if there’s anything in you that’s not ready to choose to completely cut out wine, then know that you’re just not …
