 Today I had my first taste of raw food. My initial question was, "will there be raw meat in this raw food?". No raw meat was not included in my tastings haha.  Raw food is made up of all organic, unprocessed and natural foods. The items I tasted were mainly made up of vegetables. I have to say it was quite good. I had a crab cake, granola bar, flax crackers, carrot cake and a coconut shake.  Today I had my first taste of raw food.

Raw food is made up of all organic, unprocessed and natural foods. The items I tasted were mainly made up of vegetables. I have to say it was quite good. I had a crab cake, granola bar, flax crackers, carrot cake and a coconut shake.  

Initially when I began to eat, I did not think this food would fill me up. However, I couldn't even finish all of my carrot cake by the time I tried everything else. It actually did fill me up. The carrot cake was quite delicious. It was made with carrots, mango and coconut.

For those of you who want to cut sugar and processed foods out of your diet this is something you should look into. If something actually tastes that good without all of the excess sugar, chemicals, etc. logically why not eat it?  
It is not that simple to tell somebody to go ahead and eat raw food. I certainly am not saying I would eat "raw" all the time. Eating "raw", however, is a great way to get in many of your daily nutrients naturally. Going back to the basics and eating the way we used to eat, evolutionarily speaking, is good for the body.  

I encourage everyone to try this type of food at some point. Have any of you done it before? What do you think? I'm curious to know your thoughts.
