I've heard about the bagel thing too (from someone who isn't prone to slander and has spent a lot of time among different gurus). I bet he only eats the bagel, not the cream cheese, since that would be an overt fat and one combined with carbs, at that!
Hmm not sure who exactly. People say david wolfe i think. What cooked food does he eat? Somebody I saw thinks they saw him in a burger king. haha that makes me laugh so much. I don't know. We need the raw papparazi stalking these people to get the snaps of them chomping into that pizza or burger.
Others are open about it. Sarma, not that I'd call her a guru, openly admits she indulges in some cooked food. Its not like its junk cooked though, she makes conscious decisions. I've heard the boutenkos aren't by durianrider on 30bd. I really just can't believe that. They are so genuine. I find it hard to believe they'd eliminate oils from their diet yet eat cooked food at the same time.
Then there's the whole 1 pecent cooked that people go on about. Yes most people aren't 100 percent raw unless they are 811 but what is a little bit of tamari or something like that. I mean its very different being a cooked food eater to a raw food minus a little bit of some tiny thing mostly raw foodist.

I know someone who personally saw DW in a Japanese restaurant, eating cooked food. Not that I think there's anything wrong with that.
Maybe the bigger problem is the emphasis on 100% when, for so many, it's just not sustainable (even for gurus!) yet they feel they have to maintain appearances in order to keep their followers.
A group where sexy individuals, such as myself (hah), who enjoy living a clean life...in terms of food and the environment anyways, because let's face it..what you do behind closed doors is your businesss ;]
The tribes are gathering.. Do you want to live in a more human model of society. It has long been an idea of mine to begin a Permaculture based community, however I am reminded that community is about sharing with others, not doing it all yourself!
A gathering spot for eco-entrepreneurs to share, network, brainstorm, and showcase thier dreams and ideas! From health consultants, professional bloggers, restauranteurs, and green energy titans, all are welcome.
This group is designed solely for the purpose of sharing recipes!
Did you try something new that you just have to share?
Do you have a special recipe that you've perfected over the years?
Recipes for Newbies to begin the Raw journey. Preferably simple, common ingredients using fairly common kitchen appliances...light on time and MMMmmm, mmmmm good.
For all those on the path of manifesting all that they desire through the law of attraction, fans of the movie "The Secret" and/or its principles, and anyone seeking friends on their journey to the realization of their dreams!
You're allergic. I have the same reaction and ended up getting allergy tests. Just have to wait it out and let it heal. Apparently you can build allergies to pineapple, so that sucks.
