Date: June 18, 2011 11:06PM Does anyone have a GOOD! source for Brazil Nuts? A really good source please, they are really hard to come by. Only reply if you are experienced with soaking nuts because when you soak Brazil Nuts they loose there crunch if they are not really fresh and processed with low temperatures. It would also be great to have some truly raw almonds! Thanks a million, rzman Re: Raw Nuts!

Date: June 19, 2011 03:40AM Have you tried sunfood.com? So far, I think they have the best truly raw brazilnuts. Kind of expensive though.
I recently placed an order with Essential Living Foods, but it's been awhile and haven't received anything from them. Has anyone ordered from them? Has anyone ordered brazilnuts from rawguru.com? Re: Raw Nuts!

Date: June 20, 2011 04:53PM The sources above are good, though a bit costly. I use to have an almond source, but they ran out. Sept/Oct is the new crop.
Brazil nuts supposedly don't need to be soaked, according to many sources. Same with other nuts. I guess because they don't sprout. Simple Raw Recipes & Health Tips Re: Raw Nuts!

Date: June 23, 2011 09:27PM Thanks everyone I will try one of these suppliers that you have mentioned. I have been scouting the same ones but yes they are very expensive and that is a big problem. GilmoreGirl Brazil nuts do have to be soaked like any other nuts or seeds. They don't need to sprout, you are just trying to remove the enzyme inhibitors so you can digest them properly.

Date: June 25, 2011 10:56PM Common people lets give up some of our sources of great inexpensive nuts lol. I wish I was stronger to be on this fourm more to strengthen the raw food community. We really need to get together and grow, Be an example to our friends and all that are around us. I hope all here have gone to cornucopia.com and filed a petition to make organic almonds raw again,and make a donation if possible. Re: Raw Nuts!

Date: June 26, 2011 12:57AM Hi rzman,
The brazil nuts from Essential Living Foods arrived sooner than I thought (I didn't see the notice in my PO Box). They are really good! They are raw and certified organic. The price is $18.99 for 2 pounds ($10.00/lb), compared to $16.95/lb at Sunfood. [www.essentiallivingfoods.com] Re: Raw Nuts!

But if you say they are very good I will give them a try. Re: Raw Nuts!

Date: July 08, 2011 03:36PM Hi, I'm new here and to RAW (4.5 months).
Thank you for sharing the website, Rzman. I assume you mean: [www.cornucopia.org] I was not aware that we can go to the site and sign/file a petition. I'm going to do that right now. It's outrageous what they do to food before it's available to the consumer  Re: Raw Nuts!

Yes Dita, Thank you. Everyone should do this! how else are we to fight for our rights. There is strength in numbers and that is a much stronger statement then we realize. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
