Spirulina and cacao taste really good together :) .

I saw a picture of David Wolfe and Shazzie after they had been in Europe for a week subsisting on just cacao and spirulina. (Or was it blue-green algae..is that the same thing?) I forget what book the photo was in, haven't forgotten how bright-eyed and shiny they looked. There was a notation stating that the photograph had not been altered. Got to be good!

Blue/green algae is spirulina. I was doing research today, and found out that cacao and spirulina have been eaten together for thousands of years. The spirulina was harvested out of lakes near Mexico City, and the cacao came from the jungles to the south of Mexico City. Interesting, indeed!

As for living on it, I think I would become an insomniac if I did. It is so energizing.

Raweater, How did you eat it? Dry? Mixed with liquid? I've been adding spirulina to my green smoothies, but I must admit, I don't eat it for the taste!:p
