I am so not into tatooes but every now and then I fantasize about having some sort of tribal band around my lower back and bikini line. Kinda like permanent wastebeads.

So ....

How about a horny of plenty basket on one butt check and the word juicy on the other

Or maybe Betty Boop in a takini just below my bikini line mowing my errr ummmh wheat grass:eek:, yeah wheat grass that's it;)!

Or how about a red hot chilli pepper on my shoulder

I will never get a tatoo cause I don't like the idea of doing something so permanent to my body (plus I hear it hurts) - however if it was for the purpose of commemorating raw I would get a butterfly cause I feel like I have been transformed and freed because of raw foods - thus the butterfly concept. It is like I am a new creature living a new lifestyle.

I've always loved butterflies -- have my one and only on my hip. Hasn't changed in the 9 years I've had it and is in a spot where it should be good when I make babies and stretch. My mom gave it for high school graduation. I was 17 so had to have her sign the paper. I had asked for her butterfly necklace that HER mom gave her for HER grad, but she wouldn't give it to me. I had ADHD issues out the ying yang and would lose EVERYthing I got my hands on. Couldn't lose a tattoo. It always makes me laugh that that's why she finally said "yes." :) Anyways, just reminded me of that.

Maybe the word "fresh" somewhere?

I like lifeAgift's the best so far! ;)

How about a whole back piece with a variety of fruit with happy honey bees swarming about that are emanating out of your bungola!

When I went in to get one of my tattoos, the guy in front of me was getting an awesome sleeve (his whole arm) and it was vegan-based. It was all different veggies in a really cool mural-like style...I especially remember the broccoli and tomatoes. He was very proud to be vegan and I thought it was awesome.

I saw this girl in Northampton that has a tattoo of a pommagrante-it rocked! I think I'd like a bulb of garlic or an avocado.

How about an Earth with broccoli for continents? Or a sun made of a slice of lemon with sunbeams made of carrots? Or the word raw or _____ written in sanskrit or chinese? A strawberry heart? A tiny green smoothie? A tribal band or bracelet with frutis and vegetables? Oh a tree! A tree filled with different fruits you like. A yggdrasil sort of tree. A tree of life.

Whatever you decide, I recommend getting it done in henna first.=)>

I agree. The where is important as well as the amt. of $$ you're willing to circulate... a half or full sleeve, a back piece or just a quickie lil hidden one... give us hints... :)

I have the spiral of life tattooed on my ankle and I think this also represents raw foods - so full of life and energy. I sometimes think about getting another one as I like symbols, but I'm probably done with tattoos. Less is more.

Hahaa. Recently I saw a woman who looked to be in her 70's with the juicy sweatpants on - you know the ones where the word "juicy" is in big letters plastered all over your behind. I thought good for her! lol.

These are some really great ideas. I like the sun and the tiny green smoothie a lot. Or the tree...wow. Thatd be a whole back though...

It wouldn't have to be a whole back--unless you really needed to include every fruit--the entire foliage of the tree could be a fruit collage.

I don't think I would ever actually get a tatoo, it just seems to unnatural to me, but if I were to choose one, I think I would have to go with an avocado. I seem to practically live on them, so it would be fitting to me as a commeration.
