RAW!
The word 'raw' sounds like some kind of wrestling event or a radical surfing term, in other words, 'raw' implies cool to me. However, when in reference to food I continue to get a different reaction all together from people. When I speak about eating raw food people squint and frown as if 'raw' has transformed into a bad thing opposed to the 'raw knuckles fist fighting, totally extreme'!
Where as I still imagine a hardcore "'RAW DIET'!! Tattoo it on your forehead! AHH"! Countless people I talk to have a conception of an unsustainable diet, a thin layer of food for a starving and weak person eating raw 'rabbit food'. "Why don't you 'man-up' and eat a cooked beef patty"? Why do people turn their back on the extreme word RAW at the most vital moment?
That is more of a rhetorical question, I could make up theories and blame our past generations or the history of cooking to killing germs or I could scold advertisers and marketing or more conspiratorial I could shake my finger at the lobbyists of dairy farmers who whisper to our government and FDA or finally place blame on the fairly ignorant field of nutrition, which compared to space exploration is microscopic in funding. Who knows the true answer, I'm sure it's different per individual.
But consider this: Parsley (probably rabbit food) contains
3x Vitamin C as oranges
2x Iron as spinach
Vitamin A
Calcium
Potassium
And many potent chemicals that freshen breath, help the kidneys clean your blood and is recognized for its cancer-fighting potential
However, once you cook it, you kill a lot of its properties, making easy for any sissy digestive system to digest. Only hard-core systems can digest RAW parsley!
O yea, it contains virtually no fat...Look Good Naked!
