Why yes Pete, I just finished the draft of volume 1 and my editor is going over it this weekend. I am deeply and humbly honored to have a man of your eminence write the preface.

Just make sure you don't spam it. Dhru's watching.

I'm sorry Uti, but if there isn't a book to read and no one to tell me exactly what I should or shouldn't be eating, I don't think I could handle the stress of having to actually think of what I should be eating. Someone has to tell me what to do because I am an automaton and unable to think for myself :)

Will you be my new guru? I will certainly follow whatever you tell me the 08-08-08 diet involves. Does it involve any Chinese food because I've just really had enough of that canned spam when I was growing up. One of the grossests foods I ate before going raw. So 100% non-spam food would be great. Just let me know what I should be eating and we can send a blanket email out to everyone to share our new found superfood!! Plus make a few bucks on the new book!

Pink, oh-ate oh-ate oh-ate is definitely 100% spam-free. Sorry, no book or guide lines. Nothing to buy. Just eat whatever you want. And the best thing of all: nothing to think about! This may cause a lot of people a world of problems, but I'm sure support groups will form for those who think they failed at the 08 08 08 diet.

Thank you so much for explaining that to me Uti (you are too funny).

So, I just say, OH, then I eat, sounds pretty simple to me!!! Can I say YUMMM, while eating?It just sounds too easy to be true, I really need to make this more complicated than it really is.....

Sorry Pete, I just can't bring myself to call the discoverer of vitamin L and the Man With The Golden Banana "Mister Thicko". Let's just say that in your haste to escape the throngs of thong tossing screaming teenage fans you didn't have the opportunity to check Friday's date on the calendar. Or were you simply occupied with getting a fresh supply of B-12 the fun way? I congratulate you on being 100% 08/08/08!

p.s. I want to caution you against overdosing on vitamin L while taking oral B-12. Laughing while administering oral B-12 might get you in a painful headlock or a cranial adjustment.

I'm doing SO well on the 08 08 08 diet. So far I've been 100% successful in eating the things I've eaten. I reached out my arm, picked the food up and put it into my mouth, chewed and swallowed. So easy! And seriously, I've never felt so good! Who knew eating could be so easy??

mary you are missing the point of being raw, its supposed to be really complicated!! You obviously dont know that there is a certain RAW way to chew your food. So did you chew it in a fruitarian fashion? or was it more gourmet? did you consider the enzymes in your mouth, how many times did you chew? Please people- all this simplicity, I just cant cope!! ( LOL).

Perhaps if you're on the 80 10 10 diet you may believe it needs to be complicated, but on both the 08 08 08 diet and the more long-term 10 10 80 plan it is unnecessary to contemplate how to chew food! In fact, apart from bananas (see recent publication), it is also unnecessary to worry about how to peel food too. Numerous recent studies have shown that worrying in the vicinity of food causes enzyme numbers to decrease rapidly, and indigestion to increase exponentially!

I have just completed my lunch. It was 100% successful.
