• This is an interesting topic to me because I grew up in a fat-phobic household. In my home, foods were divided into the "good foods" and the "fatty or bad foods". When I became vegan I started learning that not all fat is bad, buts its been a slow l…

• Meditating - the hypothesis I provided earlier was merely that, and something I have read in several sources. I have also read, however, that the ancestor of the homo sapien was already in control of fire and therefore humans were eating both cooked…

• On a similar note, it has been argued that human only developed the practice of cooking foods when they started needing to cook meat. In that logic, eating meat is about as unnatural as eating cooked foods.

• I live in Oregon, and while it doesn't often snow, it does get really cold! Also I live in an old drafty house with no heat and many broken windows. These are some things that have really helped me keep warm. 1) Long underwear. A lot of people don't…

• I miss the big friendly text. The new site, along with many the many frustrations of finding recipes, has such small text and unfriendly icons! The old forum board was both much easier to read and far less intimidating.

• Thanks rawlady. Could I just bring a bottle of diluted ACV with me to work to rinse off with? That like sounds super easy relief (and cheap!)

• I could really use some help here... I teach swimming lessons in a nicely heated saline pool(which does contain chlorine, btw) . After 3 and half hours in the water, I am a prune. Lately I have been having trouble with very dry skin and hair. I have…

• I lost 10 pounds and since have held steady for the last 2 months or so. I wasn't (and am still not) following any plans, just eating what I wanted when I wanted and trying to do monomeals, which I find are easiest. I also didn't , and still haven't…

• I don't usually use soap, but I do scrub myself all over with a washcloth to help wash away the dry skin.

• I find that in the evenings a long hot shower soothes my desire to use food as a cure to whatever emotional ailment I am suffering that day.

• I think we're being a little hard on aylee. I definitely understand how hard being raw can be on the social life and yourself. In my own experience, food seems to be something that people bond over, and no matter how respectful I am of their food ch…

• Thanks for the reassurance; I'll tell my partner not to worry about me when I'm in a fruit-only mood, as so often happens! Right now I seem to be on a date "break" (which is a little relieving as I was starting to wonder if I was addicted!) so when …

  in Why do people eat so many dates, cashews, dehydrated foods? Comment by Parsley
• Kristensraw, how many dates do you normally consume? I think I am addicted. Sometimes I crave dates. I like dates in apple/almond butter sandwiches, dates with cocoa nibs, dates paired with bananas or persimmons as a meal, or just by themselves beca…

• On a similar topic, how do you rinse out chlorine? I work at saline pool, and swim twice a week in my school's cholorinated pool. My hair has become dry, dry, dry! It is thick, but bristly and sticks out a lot. It looks like it has great volume, but…
