AVACADOSWhat kind of raw are you?

[Guest guest]

So Tommie, do you get any fat from any sources? I had to ask about the avacados

because we have just been eating them so much lately...My 4 year old is often

covered in green and walks around with a half of avacado (on the shell) and a

spoon!

Hi, Tiff! I've been doing Frederic Patenaude's Green Cleanse starting

two weeks ago. It went for a week but I extended it. I don't need the

overt fat in avocados (or nuts and seeds) to maintain health. The only

reason I eat them is because I like the way they taste. I like the way

I _feel_ without them so I eat them only occasionally.
