    Default How much food do I buy now?

    Hey guys It has been about a year since iv'e been raw and kinda forgot everything..
    How much produce should I have in the house for about a two week lasting and also what food can you recommend that can keep that long or any food at that..I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO GET! We are going shopping tomorrow and I'm going to be the only raw person in the house.

    We will be going to a supermarket - Wegmans and I think a whole foods store- Lori's

    Staples such as raw evoo, acv, raw nut butters, seasonings, nuts and seeds for soaking and sprouting, anything else you think you might need in the store cupboard. Fruit, greens and veg I always buy daily.

    Ya I am planning to get a lout of raw nuts and seeds and some nut butters but I can't get fresh fruit everyday since the supermarket is an hour away. So I'm looking for a wholesaler warehouse that is located in the city or something but it is kinda hard...gonna have to make some calls.

    Holy molly what a haul of food that we got for me when out shopping got TONS okay maybe not that much but it is a good start for a raw teen, I also gave my mom twenty dollars to help pay for it all this is a rough estimate of what I got-

    4lbs of oranges, 4lbs apples, like 6lbs grapefruit, 2 avacados, a hawiian papya the really bigs ones, 2 catalopes, 1 mini watermelon, tons of bananas, caoliflower, bag peaches, 8lbs frozen blueberries, romaine heart lettuce, 2 cucumbers, 3 mangoes tomatoes, a pineapple, two bags of grapes, raw pumpkin seeds and raw almonds.

    Tomorrow I'm going to pick up some raw chia seeds, raw coconut oil and maybe some raw hemp protein powder oh and can't forget nutritional yeast
