Every day I'm getting strong cravings for olives. However, I can't find raw olives!

The olives at Whole Foods, Trader Joe's and Wild Oats Market are all marinated in some form of brine, and canned olives undergo heating as part of the packaging process in addition to being brined.

Does anyone know how/where I can get raw olives? Or should I start ordering from Nature's First Law?

.... which doesn't mean they aren't raw....

Might ask and find out exactly what they are marinating in and if they are raw.

Alissa sells them here on her web site. Check up in the upper left-hand corner - Books, DVD's & other raw diet products!!! ;)
I got by this rule of thumb. Unless it specially says raw - I don't purchase it.
