I was in New York recently and tried these Tofu Knishes and LOVED them! The apple flavor was my favourite :) Perhaps you could help me with something! I bake a lot myself and I only need to know the ingredients in this product so I can improvise and make my own recipe! // johanna Hi!

I've been actually drinking them for almost two years, although only perhaps 1 or 2 per week, and most of the time it was kale/spinach/apple/celery combination. I never thought of using bananas or berries in them until I started researching raw foods. I think easing into eating raw, as opposed to jumping into a 100% raw food diet, makes a lot of sense, especially if you have some additional challenges - like other people in your life who you need to feed :-) Replacing the really bad foods, like refined sugars, drinking green smoothies, and making some raw alternatives (zucchini pasta with raw marinara, for example) is a good way to get more raw into your day to day diet. And it will make easier to transition to 100%, whether that be as a trial, or as a more permanent way of eating. And thanks for reading :-) Green smoothies are definitely a great way to begin.

I still haven't taken the step to raw other than some green smoothies and a few salads but I will still get there. Someday. I may have to ease into it although a 30-day (or even 7-day) trial seems like a better way to do it. I wonder about how my nearly-5-year-old will react (he's already a picky eater) and the fact that there are so many nuts in the raw diet; his school is completely nut-free. I don't want to be making two meals all the time so it will take some planning and organizing and dedication. Looking forward to that day for me though. I've enjoyed reading back in your blog and will continue to read each new post. That’s interesting about the lack of changes/differences you’ve noticed.
