Raw Food - Dud or Dude?

http://www.xenu.ch/images/scn/hubbard2.jpg

After watching enemas on YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT I am considering doing a raw food week, but the thing is, I have lots of asparagus and mince (ooh! mince!) to eat up so maybe not. Perhaps I shall turn to SEEDS.

So, raw meat, esp. fish = classic!

Vegetables... it depends. Broccoli and cauliflower should be cooked, carrots either way, tomatoes raw, mushrooms cooked, potatoes cooked.

I can't go for raw food restaurants. Nine times out of ten, it's way too petulant for me. Come on, moderation, folks!

OMG SHIT NO FUCKING HIPPIES EATING SALADS!!! THEY MUST BE FAGGOS OMG.

Cooked tomatoes in stews/sauces/casseroles though = classic! HOT TOMATO in sandwiches = utter dud. In fact I think tomatoes in sandwiches are mostly dud anyway apart from the brie tomato and basil baguette from Pret where I forgive it for some reason. Tomato is always the worst thing in any time of x + salad sammiche.

omg so good.

The beef Ken is talking about is Shabu-shabu, which is my favourite Japanese dish behind unagi (eel). Thin slices, swished lightly in boiling water (the name refers to the noise the beef makes) then dipped in raw egg before making a mouthful of eggy beefy barely cooked goodness. Super num.

london fancy a kick about again FAKA?

I have a "friend" who is a fruitarian. They eat the ENTIRE fruit, skin, stem, etc. I saw this duder eat a WHOLE RAW PINEAPPLE, skin and all. HA HA YR MOUF HURTS.

Still, I feel wrong being so jokish about this, considering the ridiculous health benefits of eating raw things, but I guess I've spent too many years cooking/eating too many tasty things letting notions such as nutrition go to the wind to not be so flippant about it anymore.

raw veg is mostly much nicer than cooked. The same is true for fruit but x100000. to my taste buds, at any rate.

Um, no. It's more like the typical eye-rolling that any overhyped food trend engenders.

kitfo (raw beef mixed with ethiopian butter and spices)is delicious.

or you can just have a slice of raw meat. tastes grreat.

- Raw spinach contains oxalic acid which forms an insoluble bond with calcium and iron and renders the uncooked green essentially non-nutritious.

- Raw red cabbage, brussels sprouts, and beets contain a chemical that blocks the absorption of vitamin E.

- Phytates in uncooked grains block magnesium, zinc and copper.

- A vitamin E blocker in raw kidney beans, alfalfa, and some peas increases the incidence of liver disease in animals.

- Undercooked lima and other broad beans contain high concentrations of cyanogens - poisons similar to cyanide.

- Raw cabbage, broccoli, brussels sprouts, kale, turnips, rutabagas, cauliflower, mustard seeds, and horseradish all contain goitrogens which cause extreme enlargement of the thyroid among people with little iodine in the diets.

In almost all cases, cooking the food solves the problem.

Jessa and I have been reading a raw food cookbook to each other for fun lately, as comedy. This is easily the most hysterical, least informed, most knee-jerk hippie dumbass food trend EVER.

What's really great about the raw food cookbook is the absolute famine of nutritional information or food science in it. Everything is supposed to be good for you because... it's Raw! It removes toxins, dontcha know! Never you mind what "toxins" are. Or how it removes them.

You know, even assuming that these toxins of which so many people so often speak are real and not imagined, the fastest way to get rid of them is to drink a couple of gallons of water. And please, cook your food, you mentalists.

his favorite foods are like blood sausage, pate and lobster rolls!

This thread is OTM regarding the utter lack of science surrounding the raw food thing.

(Also, pineapple ice cream, which was Oh My God Good. A home ice cream maker is a joy forever.)

The earth constantly offers the purest substance on the planet as spring water. We celebrate this ancient life source that humanity flourished from, since the beginning of our existance. We trust it's perfect just the way it is.

Jesus god which shitewit was the copywriter for this idiocy?
