Hi Everyone,
Sometimes when something is posted here, although you may not see a lot of responses on this site, we on this end, get a TON of emails. so a few quick things I want to clear up and let you know about.
Since I was not able to keep up and answer the thread on goldmine products. .. Someone posted that their shredded coconut was not raw. Well, we were shocked here because we buy HUGE quantities of this item from them and we were told that they were raw. They even had them listed on their site as raw.
We have stopped selling these and we are returning the unused stock back to them.
We only buy the oats and nama shoyu from them. Goldmine is a reputable company. They are not all raw fooders so something got lost in the mix which is unfortunate. But the oats have been guaranteed to me that that are indeed raw. They are flaked and not heated or steamed. The nama shoyu is their product and is sold worldwide and you all know about that.
We will be carrying coconut powder which is an amazing product. I am switching some of my products to a company that we get many many things from. All of our distributors are great to deal with but I particularly like this company because the man who runs it is a raw fooder and he sends us tons of info and samples and spends hours on the phone with us letting us know where he is getting his supply and how it is produced, etc… He is super careful with every product he buys. So most of our stock now is coming from him, raw cacao, maca, carob powder, coconut powder, goji berrrie, and on and on.
Just wanted to clear that up since some of you were nervous about the whole coconut fiasco.
I do my best to make sure everything is of the highest quality and that I don’t sell anything I wouldn’t eat myself.

We are also buying, from the company I mentioned above, a truly raw agave. Now, right now I sell madhava which they have assured me is raw. Many of you know from research being done that there is a lot being written that no agave is truly raw. Then some will argue that there is a Blue Agave that is really the only true raw one. Well, I have news for you. The blue agave is not truly raw either. We just got a sample of this new agave and it is unbelievable.
I’ve tried many many agaves and this does not taste like any I’ve had. AND it is crystal clear, no color at all! So that will be coming soon.
If your still using the madhava and you feel fine about it, that’s ok. Kind of like the cashew debates and many other things raw fooders fight about. It’s the best that’s been out there but as things come to me from other sources I’ll do my best to make them available to you all. We’re always searching for the best products to carry from the most credible sources.
