I wasn't accepted at the first public firefighter school I applied to (my cardio wasn't good enough) but was accepted at the 2nd private school, I got the letter saying I'm accepted this morning! Im starting in august!

Congrats! Now, considering that most (municipal) firefighters are on 24 hr. shifts (or longer) and cook communal meals at the fire station, are you going to convert your future colleagues to raw gourmet food???:D

Thanks. I'm not sure if they'll want to go raw, but I did talk about my raw food discoveries to people I knew from high school and one of the rare ones that was open to it is a firefighter now. I know one group of one firehouse in Texas went vegan because they realized they were on the verge of having a heart attack from high blood pressure and cholesterol. They have a book called The Engine 2 Diet, I may buy it even though it's cooked, I'm not 100% raw anyway.

Oh wow, kitchens and feeding eachother meals in firefighter 'houses' are the thing, right?Maybe you can bring in a dehydrator or a vitamix or something and gradually turn those fellow 'hero(oine)s' on to some delish raw.Thats how I hypnotize the 'meaters', I know.I gradually convert them with smoothies and pies, etc...lol!:D
Awesome achievement btw!!!
