    Oh wow, I didn't realize that. :)

    @shy17
    Yeah just add the ACV to the water. Just a little bit is enough, I would think (a capful or two depending on the size of your bowl).

    We have them at Costco here for $10 per 900 g bag of organic chia. It's probably the best price I've seen for chia seeds, organic or not!

    What's the key to getting kale chips to be crunchy in the dehydrator? I've had success with baking them to crispiness, but not dehydrating. Also, it might be because I used a cheesy sauce (Ani Phyo's...

    She hasn't been raw for a huge part of her life, only the last few years I think. I read somewhere that she's been an on and off omnivore.

    I only eat one fruit a day usually. Sometimes more, if I also make a smoothie. But I'm not really big on sweet foods. :| I'm more of a savoury foods type of person.

    I love seaweed in any form. Any form. Seriously. But I have to be careful not to eat too much of it because it tends to be "cooling" and I'm already on the "cool" side.
