If You Were To Eat One Cooked Food What Would It Be? And Why?

Posted by Pink Lady Apple on May 15, 2008 at 12:40pm in General Chat

I was curious as to which food people go for when they choose to eat cooked foods. I know that there are some on this site that are 100% and this wouldn't apply to them. But, there are people on this site that are high raw or transitioning and eat cooked foods on a daily basis or periodically.
I was wondering, when you go to eat cooked food, what is the ONE thing that you crave the most?

Mine is roasted and salted sunflower seeds. I have tried several recipes for raw sprouted unshelled sunflower seeds and I just haven't been able to duplicate it. I'm still trying.....
But, when I crave something cooked, that is what it is. I'm not sure if it because I smoked many moons ago and need the hand to mouth repetition, or I just love the taste of sunflower seeds and I love sunflower sprouts.

I thought it would be a fun topic to discuss what everyone's favorite cooked food is being that we talk so much about raw foods (I know that is what this site is all about folks).

I think it's something about the spices, complex flavors, textures, and warmth that is true comfort food. All my vegan slip ups were from Matar Paneer. Forget the American macaroni and cheese real comfort food for me is tomatoes, spices, cream, and homemade drained cheese. I even developed a vegan Matar Paneer recipe to help me stay vegan. But I am long past strict dietary terms now and try to just listen to my body and balance any toxins I consume, I am sick of the guilt from slipping and yoyo'ing between diets and terms.

Cooked food doesn't hold the place it use to in my regular diet but I don't exclude it. Esp. when eating out with friends and family!; ▶ Reply to This
