Here are two great questions that I received from the blog over the last few days…
First one is “Are rolled oats raw?”
And second, due the popularity of the spinach miso recipe, “Is miso only made with soy?”
In this episode I address them both AND talk about the event that is RAWking the raw world! 
Take a look…
Your question of the day: Will you be “virtually” attending the Rawkathon?

You bet. I’ll be Rawkin’ That is soooooo cool. Great that you’re putting this together. Awesome dude.
I actually went to school in Conway, MA. and visited and spoke with the owner of South River Miso. Great Miso. Great guy. The only place, I believe that still makes it by hand. I don’t even think they do that in Japan any more. Very rare if they do. I highly recommend the Dandelion Leek Miso. Hard to get. Very limited supply. But if you see it get some. But don’t take all of them. Leave some for others folks. Don’t worry. You’re generosity will come back to you many time over. See you at the Rawkaton!!! Wow!!!

Question about the miso:
Where’s the linky for the soy free miso company?
Comment about the oats:
You can get them raw from GlaserFarms in Miami. I prepare a bowl of rolled oats, dried fruits, cinnamon and few nuts with nut milk and put it in the refrigerator. In the morning the oats will be soft as if they were cooked and oh so yummy breakfast is ready for me

This is so awesome! I read about the Rawkathon in at least 5 blogs this morning and it brought me back to this time last year when I first went raw. I remember being so completely enthusiastic and excited to learn everything I could and that was just when the Raw Summit was happening. So I had a flashback of spring weather, planting veges and listening to raw talks. (I’m in the southern hemisphere) Oh it’s gonna be good. I can’t hardly wait!

Shoot, missed the I in Kevin, so here it is….I.
9:37 pm on September 30th, 2008
Yes I’m going to attend!
10:10 pm on September 30th, 2008
I will be attending as much as the Rawkathon as possible, looking forward to some great info and seeing what all your hard work has been able to pull together.
As to the oats, it might not be raw but a good New England type winter breakfast for me is steel cut oats slowcooked in local apple cider and then topped with maple syrup and chunks of apple(all local but the oats). Cinnamon and cranberries optional
Are there any oats that are considered raw? To make a raw granola perhaps, how would they be labelled in a store to tell the difference.

Hey Kevin, As i live in Australia i can’t make it to the “RawKathon” but can’t wait to watch it on line!! Thanks for your efforts.
Today you were talking about soy, and you mentioned that it effects the Thyroid; was wondering if you could send me more information on that and what else can effect it. Also what else will help Thyroid function.
Cheers! Rebecca

Hi Kevin,
I enjoy your show and will be at your RawKathon. I have a hard time with this type of eating I don’t know how to plan a meal and what goes together and that sort of thing. I have to do this for me because my husband is a die hard FRIED steak and potatoe and gravy man. I don’t like this sort of thing and don’t even like to cook it.But what is a person suppose to do. He thinks I crazy to eat my way. :~)
to bad,
Marji

12:14 pm on October 1st, 2008
Yes, I am signed up for the show.
In regard to the rolled oats. I boil water, covered. Turn off the burner. Add the rolled oats. Cover and let sit 10 minutes. Stir a few times while it sits. Voila! Delicious! It does not have to ‘cook’ with the burner on. The remaining heat does it.
Sandy T. Enjoy your videos. Thanks!

Just a short note to clarify a little about soy, fermented soy and the thyroid gland.
Tempeh, miso and fermented bean cakes are prepared in this manner so that vegans can benefit from the high protein that fermented soy brings to the diet. Unfermented soy contains an enzyme which competes with TSH, but is otherwise destroyed during fermentation. Fermented soy is really the only way to eat soy.
Hope this helps.

ABSOLUTELY!!!
11:37 pm on October 1st, 2008
If you buy rolled oats in bulk , then is it already rancid and unfit for human consumption?
Thanks
12:18 am on October 2nd, 2008
