An Experiment in Raw Eating

Hail Kale!


I ate...or drank...AN ENTIRE HEAD OF KALE THAT I PUT IN THE BLENDER. With apple and strawberries. It really wasn't bad....I never saw anything that green!

I am still in no way a "raw foodist" yet. I think it takes awhile. You cannot just adopt a new way of eating that quickly...so I am just playing around until it's real. And learning. There seems to be a lot to learn.

I think I am going to the health food shop tommorow to pick up a few things...

Raw Anxiety


Had my normal breakfast of sugar free red bull and a balance bar. Then a friend asked me to go out at lunch. We went to a Mexican Restaurant. I quickly became overwhelmed with the delicious, if toxic, choices on the menu. I chose a quesadilla, which is was the least offensive thing I could find. I didn't even want it. I enjoyed the atmosphere of the restaurant at lunch...with great art on the walls and the door open to the street...but I was thinking about raw eating, and how the hell I would pull that off in social situations, such as I was experiencing.

Afterward we walked to Ben and Jerry's. I had a scoop of "chocolate therapy". These are not foods I would normally eat. I didn't really want the ice cream, but I enjoyed the experience of the ice cream shop. I have no idea how people eat raw in life.......no idea. Felt kind of tired low energy crappy for the rest of the day and am going to bed early. I found my first raw food recipie...hopefully I will have that tommorow night....
