• The capitalist system as a whole is enormously wasteful in so many ways. Supermarkets throwing out perfectly good food is only a little sliver of the tip of the iceberg.

  in Where does all the produce go??? Comment by Deadly Steve
• You're still adjusting to lighter eating and subtler flavours. Stick with it and everything will balance out. When I first started dabbling in raw food I got ferocious bread cravings! Only lasted a few days though.

• You forgot fermented soy products. Miso and nama shoyu are made with boiled beans but they're still enzymatically active. That's crap about American almonds. I often sprout mine, it's really nice.

• What's so scary about gaining a bit of weight? It's not as if you're going to end up obese from raw food.

• Listen to your body, it's a seriously sophisticated product of millions of years of evolution so if it says rest, you rest! Or if you have too much energy to even sit still, go use it! A break in the middle of a workout scheme such as yours can have…

• Where are my manners? Here's the banana ice cream recipe. Chop and freeze four or five bananas, then whizz them in a food processor until they turn into thick creamy stuff, you might need to scrape down the sides once or twice. Orgasmic!

  in Food Processor Comment by Deadly Steve
• I have a food processor/blender combination thing that only cost 60 euro and it's perfect! I'm eating banana ice cream out of it right now. Shop around!

• When I went vegan a few years ago I was a smoker, and within a few days my nicotene cravings had shrunk drastically! And here's a tip I discovered by accident: having the aftertaste of fruit juice in your mouth makes cigarette smoke taste unbearably…

  in What is your scientific bases for not eating meat??? Comment by Deadly Steve
• I despise supermarkets, they destroy the character of wherever they set up, push dodgy crap, and undercut everyone else out of business before raising their prices dramatically. The only statement you can make by buying in a supermarket is "I SUPPOR…

  in Anybody else into.. Comment by Deadly Steve
• She could be just rebalancing her metabolism, doing some "catching up", and besides that meat is very heavy so her system is most likely used to dealing with that. My approach for something like that would be to stick with the vegan diet but eat hea…

• My flatmate had this stuff which was fairly much just sea salt and various olive and herb oils, had her skin in great condition!

  in How do I make homemade soap/exfoliant? Comment by Deadly Steve
• There's a bottom line to all this that I reached long ago and haven't strayed from since. I won't spoil it for you, but I will say that it's immensely liberating.

  in How do I reconcile veganism/animal rights with my faith? Comment by Deadly Steve
• Great stuff, especially the second link. I think the best example of what can happen when a creature eats what they're not biologically suited to is the Western world's huge incidences of heart disease and obesity! Or, more directly, look at the BSE…

• I know that in the UK, a fifth of all hospitalisations are because of adverse reactions to medication. Crazy!

• Right, I was half asleep when I originally posted this, so I'll elaborate. Because this forum is used by a lot of interesting and intelligent people, I'm curious to know what other interesting and intelligent things they use the internet for. By the…

• I wouldn't even drink my own body fluids, let alone a cow's. Bleugh!

  in Raw Dairy Comment by Deadly Steve
• RawKidChef, I'm in the north west of Ireland. Which is all frost and fog right now, but I've seen some greens appearing, and I harvested some wild kale and threw it into a smoothie. Lovely!

  in Foraging Comment by Deadly Steve
• I live in a reasonably good spot for foraging, if you look in the right places. Loads of haws, blackberries, hazelnuts, leafy greens. I found a wild pear tree once, and there are a few walnut trees here and there. Bit of juniper and barberry too. It…

  in Foraging Comment by Deadly Steve
• Home growing and foraging are important for keeping good-quality - and cheap! - food in easy reach. I've grown some good parsnips and jerusalem artichokes this winter with practically no work, and once the spring gets going the area will be full of …

  in Non - almond/cashew milk substitute Comment by Deadly Steve
• Here's my own experience, not for the squeamish! When I started off raw I farted loads for about four days, really bad ones, like I had a dead sewer rat stuck up there. And when I went to the toilet it smelled like a beach does a few days after a su…

• While this topic is going, I'm curious about stevia. Can anyone tell me a bit about it?

  in Sweeteners Comment by Deadly Steve
• Been there, and I'm no veteran! It's detox alright. Your bowels are your body's primary route for getting rid of bad stuff so just wait it out, keep on track.

  in Just a really embarrasing question for the vets :-) hahaha, thanks guys! Comment by Deadly Steve
• I'll be blunt. This will be hard for you. I went from cooked vegan to raw vegan and I had some detox symptoms for a few days, so I can only imagine what you'll be like!! Maybe it's best to transition gradually, ease yourself into raw vegan instead o…

• Here's my method for sprouting just about anything sproutable - nuts, seeds, beans and pulses*. Soak them for a few hours to a day (varies a lot), drain the water off and put them in a wide-mouthed jar with a piece of loose-weave fabric over the top…
