Your choice not there? - update

[Guest guest]

I've been asked to clarify on list But before I do, let me make a quick

statement: this poll

about recipes was not intended to sort out the ovo-lactos from the vegans from

the

rawfoodists; it was simply to get an idea of WHAT kind you were (in the main)

looking for

here and/or interested in posting. It wasn't an attempt to label!

 

As far as the prob over no category for one member's choice, here it is: The

member

actually meant that she enjoyed both Vegetarian recipes AND Rawfood recipes.

That's

great! My poll didn't allow for that possibility, because it (ignorantly, it

seems) assumed

that all Rawfoodists on _this_ group would be vegetarian and that, since many of

us

vegetarians and vegans try various rawfood recipes from time to time (again an

assumption), the category Rawfood would be checked only by those who are

entirely or

primarily interested in rawfoods (If any members are looking for both kinds

of recipes,

by all means check the one that is the main choice for you, as I have said

before, okay?)

 

Whew! Finally sorted, I think. Who'd start a poll, eh? I always pick the answer

closest to my

own chosen response on any poll - there would be no point in polls if there

weren't

standard questions. And of course, there's usually a category which indicates

None of the

Above or even Other

Answer

'Raw

> Food'.That's what we mean. (Raw food vegans, please excuse me for not making
