hi, i definately did NOT like avacados when i first ate them. since i have made guacamole on my own i could eat nothing but for days i am sure! i put lots of onions in it (i hope that onions are good for me!) and that made it taste better for me. now i like avacados on their own. have a great day, take care, mindy

34. Re: natural organic peanut butter?

hi coco, thanks for the information. i love almonds so maybe i will try to make my own almond butter. i am a teacher so peanuts are off limits to me at work, generally all nuts are off limits! i think that i will try sesame seeds because that would be an option to take to school. thank you again, mindy

37. natural organic peanut butter?

hi everyone, i just have a quick question, is natural organic peanut butter raw? i am not really sure if heat is produced when the peanuts are ground... i really like having apples dipped in peanut butter as a snack, i was just wondering if this would be considered raw? thanks for your time, take care, mindy

hi, i am no where near knowledgeable enough in this area to comment on this, but i did read a story online about a month or so ago about a man that drank colloidal silver every day and he eventually turned blue! one could probably find his story online if one was so inclined to look! he was drinking it every day for years! anyway, i thought that was interesting! i am sure that it won't ha

42. Re: blending protein into smoothies?

thanks avocadess! that is a great idea. i love pumpkin seeds. i am really VERY new to this, so i probably have the stupidest question known to man...but, when you get pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds to sprout you get the hulled (raw) ones right??? for some reason i was thinking for a bit that they wouldn't sprout if they were out of their shells but the almonds that i soaked did a good job

thanks blackfoot! it is good to hear that i am not the only one who feels hungry again too fast! i could try another shake again mid-morning but i will be going back to work again soon and i don't like the way juiced fruit is unless i can drink it right away. thanks again, mindy

45. Re: what is a good first meal idea??

thank you! we have been trying to do fruit and yogurt for breakfast. i know that the yogurt is not part of the vegan diet but we are just starting! my husband actually loves just the fruit so i think it is good baby steps. we usually blend frozen berries into the yogurt, and we love the idea of smoothies so i think that your plan is great! fruit smoothies for breakfast, yum! thanks!

47. what is a good first meal idea??

hi everyone, i am new here and i want to switch to raw/living food. i have not tried anything like this before but i really love the idea of it (not hurting animals, etc), and all of the health benifits. i think that it is going to be a longer process for me since i am not even vegetarian to start with! i was just wondering if anyone has an idea for a recipe for a meal to start with? my hu
