I did attempt the raw vegan diet and it was a bust.
But I did come out with some interesting additions to my diet.

Raw chocolate!
Yes you heard me right!
When I planned on staying raw I bought some raw chocolate and it is so wonderful and better than any dark or regular chocolate from any store!
I bought some powder and some raw truffles. YUMMMY!
One truffle is so satisfying and filling it is imposable to over eat them because they are so.....well I cant describe! So rick and thick and creamy.

I tried
Hemp seeds, dark, and pepermint

PLEASE try them if you can! You will never go back to regular processed chocolate!

Raw Chocolate is what she has in her hands. It's a coco bean.That needs to be cooked until it's nearly black shells taken off while it's still hot and then pounded into a big mess until there is no lumps then it can be mixed with whatever you what. I really can't see how they would get it to that stage without cooking it. I would look into the product a bit more if they claim it's raw.

I just made a treat with some raw chocolate. It is good!!!

Raw cacao beans are dried. They are then eaten as is or made into nibs or ground into a powder.

This is very different from cooked, processed cocoa powder.
