Guest guest Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 Hi, Lorie! It's anything that isn't a good combination that has been processed past recognition just for the purpose of pleasing the palate. It's okay to eat occasionally but not to live on. There are so many people out there teaching that " as long as it's raw, it's okay " and that can do more harm than good. Education is key!

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 hey lorie.......the beauty of raw food is that it is all super delicious and super nutritious....lol...um i suppose you wouldn't want to eat too many treats made with dates, and agave, and nuts and carob...hmmmm... one of my favourite things to eat when i'm feeling indulgent is raw almond butter, mixed with coconut butter, agave and cocoa powder..... yum pure heaven... it is like the best fudgey icing you have ever tasted... there are a few common cheats in the raw food diet, cheats because they are not raw but have some nutritional value and can be used sparingly yet pack a delicious effect ...,,,maple syrup, cocoa, tamari, braggs liquid aminos, nutritional yeast....that's about it... alternatively if you are looking for raw candy recipes there must be some on line....mixing any nut butter with dates, agave, coconut, seeds,,,etc...is wonderful... have fun...rvv lorie_graber <no_reply > wrote: Tommie: I'm pretty new to Raw and am wondering - what is considered raw " junk food " ?

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 It probably won't matter to anyone other than me on here but this falls under " not a good combination " . And cocoa isn't raw.

Guest guest Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Not that I would recommend it, but you can get raw cocoa powder now. -Mike --- Tommie <jerushy wrote: > It probably won't matter to anyone other than me on here but this > falls under " not a good combination " .
