Thanks, Lucy! I will certainly try it. Since it also has water in it, does it get hard as ice in the freezer? Maybe all raw ice cream just needs to sit out for an hour before eating it, eh? I'm...

Thanks, Eva! I never thought about asking Alissa or someone on her staff. They do sell it at Grezzo, so they have to be doing it right, eh? I'll see what I can find out!

And . . . welcome back...

Yes, me too! Great magazine.

I have made raw ice cream, using a variety of recipes. Any recipe that uses cashews or coconut meat, also calls for water and my ice cream turns ice-hard after being kept in the freezer. It's...

Great idea! Who would have thought to read the owner's manual! :o

And Deb, thanks for the great tips! I end up just freezing soft and/or juicy foods without FS'ing them, but your idea to quick...

We have a Food Saver and one thing I've found is that it's hard to seal really wet or juicy food because the liquid gets sucked up into the seal area and leaves gaps that don't seal.

Anyone else...

CarolG,

You can use any glass jar for freezing. A glass jar is a glass jar. There does not have to be a special "freezing" jar. I do it all the time.

I think the peach/zucchini wrap sounds...

Eating too much dehydrated foods without compensating by drinking lots of water can certainly affect your bowel movements. Water, Water, Water! That should solve the problem.

Welcome, Marcy and blessings on you for being willing to be honest and face your situation so that you can begin to make changes. There are a lot of people here who started out just where you are,...

For me, all kinds of salads - I love a wide variety and also raw desserts! I love anything from raw brownies, to chocolate candies, to the more gourmet like cakes and "cheesecakes" and even simple...

I didn't mean to imply that dehydrated nuts need to be stored in the freezer - just saying that I do. I have more storage room in the freezer than the cupboard. :p I soak/dehydrate a big batch...

I store my soaked/dehydrated nuts in the freezer all the time. I also have frozen soaked and not-dehydrated nuts before but don't do that often. Just allow them time to thaw and they're fine in any...

Lucy, thanks for the reminder about skin brushing. I've read about that but never done it consistenly. I've lost 55 pounds and I do have sagging skin on my upper arm. I've started working out with...

Very funny Lucy! :p

I have to jump into this discussion because I feel so strongly about it. NurseInTheRaw, I too, was in the medical profession for years and assisted in cancer treatments. It is true that chemo and...

From what I've been told, Ruby Tuesday has also changed to all organic on their salad bar. Can't get better than that!

Chlorella is also good for binding with heavy metals and removing them from the body. I've not tried Alissa's brand, but all of her things I have tried are excellent quality. Chlorella is something...

I've been wanting to try the Bubbies Dill Relish for months and can't find it in the stores in my area. So I ordered a case from my local food co-op. However, I had to order a case of 12 and since...

Snow, you are a raw-food artist. Your creations are beautiful! Do you have a date yet for your recipe book?

It is not a chemical sweetener and is actually good for your teeth and not bad for your health as other sweeteners are. However, I don't think it's raw.

Including shipping, $70. Retail price is, I think, around $199 - at least that's the price that was quoted to me by an Ecoquest distributor. There may be some variations in that, depending on the...

Absolutely, Rawkin. Much of the "food" eaten today causes cancer. If people would face the fact that too often, cancer is a lifestyle disease, more people would be willing to make changes in the...

Congratulations, Morn. You continue to be an inspiration! I remember weighing 130 in my adult life and I sure didn't wear a size 4. I was wearing a size 8 then. How is it that you can wear such a...

Hi Eilene,
I'm sorry but I don't know anyone personally that has a Bellicon. From what I've read about them, they are very well made and have a deep, good bounce. It has bungee bands rather than...

Margi,
I'm curious about your diet. You say you never use a dehydrator and you don't use a food processor. It seems to me that I use my food processor almost daily and the things that fill me up...
