I didn't mean to offend anyone. I took it as satire or an opportunity to laugh at ourselves. It never occurred to me that the intent was serious. My assumption was that he himself could match one of his categories if not a few of them. I did read one of his books a long time ago, but I'm not particularly familiar with his blogging. So, yes, no idea that anyone would take it literally or that it was intended as such. And if it does strike achord? Laugh a little?

I'm sorry? I guess?

I wasn't offended by it and no need to be sorry :p . Maybe I was having an off day the day I read it the first time and that was just my reaction smiling smiley.

I think Frpa. lives from the "mistakes" he sees on other raw foodist. It is kind of a rant based negativity that brings money.

I don't get a cheeky tone from this at all; IMO, it's sincere effort to explain the variety of people in this lifestyle that FP believes to be most common. I found his observations very interesting, and his general laissez faire approach refreshing.

Thanks for posting, HH!

I am #1. I am a wannabe. I prefer to look at it as an aspiration, though. I used to think that I had to be 100% or else it didn't "count" but upon re-reading Victoria Boutenko's total re-edit of "10 Steps to Raw Foods," she says that she took the extra copies of the first edition and destroyed them because she did not like the preachy tone.

I was 95-98% raw for 1 year 8 months. Now I am 100% because all my 'treats' started making me sick.

NGU,

According to his entry under "Yo-Yo Man," he's a "Percenter," in that he eats high raw, some cooked.

I think he does not have a job and lives from creating raw food related infromation. Maybe I am mistaken. I think he writes clearly.

I like the article for its comic value, but there are, within the community of raw fooders actually following the diet, several legit variations, like these: [fresherthanlife.com]
