  • Apparently, people who live in banana-producing countries don't eat them until they're mostly or even entirely brown. Living in temperate Europe doesn't give me many opportunities to get fresh bananas, like Shawn said they're picked when they're gre…
  • I eat bananas all the time and I never have any problems.
  • Tell you what, giz a shout - flabbyvegan@hotmail.com. Good to have some like-minded people in the area!

  • Sligo, you? Sorry for derailing your topic already Elana! :)

  • I'm in Ireland. A bit different but maybe some similarities.

  • Used to need 9, now I'm happy with 4!
  • I wouldn't advise eating meat at all. Ever. We're not biologically cut out for it, despite the amount of time that a vast amount of people have been eating it for. We haven't got the digestive enzymes or stomach acid to break it down properly, our i…

  • If you drink a lot of water that should help ease the detox symptoms a bit.
  • If there were any rules about adopting an "unconventional" lifestyle like vegan and/or high raw, the first would be DON'T PREACH!! It antagonises people because, as has been said already, they feel like you're judging them or having a superior attit…
  • Try any health food shop, they'll sell it as wheat grain usually.

  • Bathing suits in the snow!!! Are you mad or just really brave? :)
  • Strictly speaking, nama shoyu is living, but not raw, because it's prepared in a similar way except for the pasteurisation. It's got enzymes and the like from the fermentation process. "Nama" means "raw" but it's just a name. This doesn't bother me …
  • Always good to see a new person hop on the bandwagon!! I'm new to raw too, and not too strict about it because I don't want to end up all exasperated. The sooner you get into sprouting the better. No fancy gear needed (I use a big glass jar, a piece…
  • Lovely! If I had that stuff I'd eat all the fruit within two days! But what's this?..... NO GARLIC!! How can you stock a fridge without garlic??!!!??!!?!!?!?! Did you know fruit lasts longer at room temperature by the way? That includes chillis, tom…
  • Can't see it without a Failbook account.
  • Has anyone used xylitol much? I've heard mixed reactions to it but never actually gave it a go.
  • Speaking of sweet, this was an accidental discovery that surprised me. Slice a parsnip thinly and leave it to sit at room temperature for a day, and it develops a subtle sweet flavour!
  • Peanuts are often grown alongside cotton, which is the most heavily chemical treated crop in the world when not organic. So that's dodgy for a start. Also, disregard my post further up there. Recently peanuts have begun to mess with my bowels a bit …
  • I remember reading somewhere that peanuts are toxic and indigestible. Fuck it, I eat 'em anyway! :)
  • That's amazing!! Took me a minute to figure out that you need to drag with the mouse though. Ha! Free=good!
  • Hibernate? Naaaah! Look at animals that do, like bears and hedgehogs and the like. They can put on huge amounts of excess weight with no ill effects, storing for the long sleep and all, but if we get above a certain BMI it starts to wreck our health…
  • Miso, soy sauce, yes. Raw beans, tofu, BLARGH!!

  • Edit: somehow posted 3 times by accident!
  • Aaargh!!
  • Here's something I flung together the other day. Get some soaked nuts, nice fresh greens, sprouts, seaweed and vegetables (not necessarily all that stuff), and maybe a few herbs or spices. Grind it all up really well in a food processor and then, wh…
  • It's in my genes to drink a crapload of tea non-stop all the time. The Yogi ones are great alright, as are Pukka. I'd say you're destroying a lot of nutrients and enzymes when you subject dried plant material to boiling temperatures, although a lot …
  • I'm new enough too, raw on and off the last few weeks. It's like going swimming; feels a bit odd and maybe even uncomfortable at first, but then you settle in and adjust and it's brilliant altogether. I went vegan a few years ago and thought until r…
  • Regarding the title of this topic, I have to say that since I've started eating mostly raw I've found myself more inclined to wade into intricate conversations with people, I feel more positive towards total strangers, and I tend to smile at people …
  • I'll give you $4 for 15lbs, how's that? Nah only messin'. You might just be hearing from me, provided you ship trans-Atlantic that is.
  • You sound like a unique case to me, unless you're doing something really wrong! Can't give any advice I'm afraid, I'm just wondering about this: "Research shows that most of the problems associated with meat is because its cooked (or even overcooked…
