  • I’ve noticed this, too. I think your cynicism is a symptom of detox.
  • I chew gum, usually 2 or 3 pieces a day. I just checked the ingredients on my Trident, and I didn’t have any idea that it contains calcium casein peptone-calcium phosphate, a milk derivative. That grosses me out a bit, and I’m now going to try to fi…

  • I don’t use a dehydrator, or an oven, and don’t really want to use either. I love my hydrated food!
  • Hi Winona—I feed my dog raw veggies (usually carrots, celery, bok choy), almonds, and sunflower seeds processed together. I add salt, too, because she loves it. I fed her eggs for a while, but am moving away from that and seeing how she likes it. Fo…
  • This is fun! Let me think what I’ve eaten today…two oranges, an apple, a grapefruit, a pear, a banana, a mango, and a big salad with a couple cups of spinach, half a cucumber and olive oil. And a few samples of my dog’s food as I was making it…:D
  • When I heard the formaldehyde thing the first time, I brought the five coconuts I had in my kitchen back to the store and swore them off. I was not 100% convinced it was true then, nor I am convinced it is untrue now; this is but one sample of one b…
  • I agree with Luna, the ones I’ve tried I did not enjoy.
  • I just finished eating some julienned zucchini tossed with basil-cashew pesto that turned out nicely. I never post recipes because I don’t measure(!), but here’s what goes in it: 1 zucchini, thinly julienned pesto: 2 cloves garlic handful of cashews…

  • Yeah, Sprout is the place I was referring to (guess I didn’t mention the name). I wouldn’t call it a restaurant, really; it’s not exactly a sitdown place. They make smoothies and juices and have stuff like tortilla chips, sunburgers, salads, and des…
  • I don’t go to Whole Foods too often, I shop at a place called Earth Fare in West Ashley. There’s actually a little raw(!) place called the sprout that has smoothies and desserts and a couple other things. There’s a place called the Mustard Seed that…
  • Sabriya—I’m in Charleston! The southeast is a pretty hilarious place to be vegan, and even more so a raw vegan. Tomorrow’s the farmers’ market, so I’m going to make sure to be on the lookout for other energetic, healthy people, who get way excited a…
  • Some coffee places do their own roasting, maybe they’d sell you some unroasted beans.
  • I think Pepsi and I have wildly different conceptions of “raw.”

  • Hey Jeebs, I’m new to this thing, too. I was vegan, and just decided to go raw after I picked up and looked through (and bought) Raw Food Real World at the bookstore. It was a seamless and easy transition for me—I gave my bread and bagels to my dog,…
