A couple of quickies from a newbie.
I called Cascadian Farms and found out that the organic frozen vegetables are all blanch heated, so they are out. The deer are going to get a nice treat - just bought a case right before going raw. The organic frozen fruit is never heated, so I might keep them around in a pinch. I know, there's nothing comparable to fresh organic produce, but in a pinch - I'll have to see about keeping the fruit for now.

Scott...two things.

The fruit is great to use in smoothies or recipes that call for a certain fruit that say, you don't have on hand or is not in season...like you said, in a pinch.

Now, you'll notice that the website you posted is removed. The reason for this is because Alissa does not advocate linking to anti-raw/anti-vegan websites here (she's addressed this in her Mission Statement as well as in posts that have come up in the past) and that website and article you listed are clearly anti-raw AND anti-vegan (he mentions the "dangers" of long term vegan diets) so as you stated, there are PLENTY of discussions here on B-12 coming from a vegan standpoint that you can get information from whether it's food sources or supplements or varying arguments as to whether we need to supplement it or not if that is an issue for you.

I hope you understand.
