One of the great attractions of raw eating is that once you've got the basics it is much simpler than cooking and normally involves a lot less preparation time and clearing up than cooked meals. So you don't need to know a whole bunch of complicated or special raw recipes - although you can certainly find them easily enough if that's what you're into. Just like normal eating, most people tend to rely on a relatively small number of standard meals that they rotate and vary. So if you get a good set of basic raw food meals then you are more than half way there. In my experience the difference with raw standards is that the flavour is always fresh, so they somehow never seem to taste quite the same and they're virtually always a delight to the taste buds..." excerpt from "Eat More Raw".

Food. There’s plenty of it around, and we all love to eat it. So why should anyone need to defend it? Because most of what we’re consuming today is not food, and how we’re consuming it — in the car, in front of the TV, and increasingly alone — is not really eating. Instead of food, we’re consuming “edible foodlike substances” — no longer the products of nature but of food science. The result is what Michael Pollan calls the American paradox: The more we worry about nutrition, the less healthy we seem to become.
