RE: [Raw Food]roll oats raisin cookie not raw.

[Guest guest]

Hi Jacky - the rolled oats I buy are at Sprouts in bulk - they are

especially not the " quick " kind.

Even though they are not raw - when you are making the transition into

eating raw they are a better choice cookie than anything " out there " . They

are a " healthy " choice if you have the need for cookies - and we did.

 

But once you make the transition to raw and move towards eating 100% raw

then you will see that the need for the " extra " fluff - like chocolate,

cookies, granola and the such don't exist in your diet anymore because your

body doesn't crave it anymore.

 

I didn't know that we wouldn't want them anymore - I thought it would always

be a part

of our new way of living - but nope. We never make them anymore and never

make

granola or the such. My brain and body says to put the " necessities " inside

my body to provide REAL nournishment - and it doesn't come from those

sweets.

 

So - make them if they sound good to you - you'll love them. One day - you

won't need them either.....but in the meantime - you will be controlling

what you put in them and that is what mattered to me.

 

Have a super happy day.

Yea! Judy! You are finding out what it's all about! Simple is

better!! I'm really impressed! It's when you pass the point of having

to have all the concoctions that you are less prone to " fall off the

wagon " .

Tommie - " you got that right! "

Simple IS better - but sometimes it takes a cookie or two to " get there! " .

Thanks!!! I'm not total raw yet but have been eating mostly salad type

things and was looking to " expand " my choices.

If you want raw version of oats, it's called as 'Oat Groats'.

Some online stores sell them. They are not heat/steam

treated.

 

Cheers,

You can get oat groats at Sprouts stores and Trader Joes too.

I've even seen them in packages at other grocery stores.

I just think the cookies are better though with the rolled oats.

I didn't know Trader Joes carries it. Thank you for sharing

the info. As far as cookies are concerned, you are probably

right as I don't know a thing about making cookies! :-)
