I was actually teetering about whether I would be a pure raw foodie or just do the vegan thing. At least as a vegan, I would still be able to eat cooked veggies. Well, today I chose a side and decided to go all the way RAW!
What solidified the decision for me is "Living on Live Food" by Alissa Cohen. I started reading her book today and it made my teetering dissipate. The testimonials shared in her book are amazing which fully convinced me of my choice. I really want to experience the best that raw food has to offer so I am jumping in with both feet.
The internet has led me to some wonderful raw food websites but I want to find some local restaurants/stores I can browse around in besides Whole Foods Market. I am finding some wonderful restaurants on the East Coast and West Coast (especially California) but it is slim pickings here in Houston, TX. I did find out there is a Houston Co-Op that offers locally grown organic fruits & vegetables. Paying them a visit is definitely on my "To Do List" for this week. There is also a Houston Raw Food Meetup Group I joined a couple of days ago (www.meetup.com) and I'll be attending the next event which I am looking forward to!
So far, no purely Raw Food restaurants that I can find here in the fair city of Houston. Sounds like an invitation for some road trips!
