Fruits l enjoy the most:

1. watermelon
2. blue berries (never properly ripe, but will eat them sometimes because they are a blue food)
3. strawberries (don't eat them...not properly ripe)
4. apricots (usually don't eat them...not properly ripe)
5. nectarines (don't eat them...not properly ripe)


Vegetables:

NONE. Don't see the point in eating greatly inferior vegetables when l can eat sprouted greens instead.

Oh yeah! I love radishes by themselves. So zesty. smiling smiley I usually will eat veggies with dressing so it's nice to be able to eat something as is. And radishes have mustard oil--I don't know if it digests protein or anything similar, but my system always feels good after eating them. Raw onions and garlic are hard for me to stomach (although I do for flavoring) because they seem particularly strong to me compared to radishes.

Hey, nanners,

Where do you get your radishes? I buy the organic ones, from Cal-Organic, I think, or Earthbound, at the Kroger whenever I see them, though I know not why: They seem to have had the zing bred right out of them! I wish I could still find the zippy radishes of yore somewhere. Will check farmers markets later this season, I guess.

I have bought organic radishes from a co-op that were pretty wilted. They cost a pretty penny, too. I was figuring out cost per radish, LOL.

I go back and forth between buying conventional bunched radishes, which look fresher and those bags with the tops taken off, which seem hotter. I wonder if the older ones develop more mustard oil...The younger ones are almost sweet.

Nice to hear from you, Tam! smiling smiley
