I agree with the raw breakfast ideas. :) The drill idea seems a lot safer than using knives, I don’t think I’d be scared to use it lol. I agree with the raw breakfast ideas. :)

LOL My dad opened and grated many a coconut so my mom could run water through the gratings to make coconut milk for bibinka!!!! My dad is dead, and my mom is 94, so no one's is making anything, but my memories as a child were when I saw dad on his stool grating like crazy, I'd jump up-and-down and scream, " bibinka! bibinka! I guess that level of delight is what makes some foods comfortable...:-) Now I miss my dad... Next time, I want to see Kevin juggle several... :-) A drill?

I am not sure if the good outweighs the harm. Any info out there? Aren’t young Thai coconuts usually dipped in a very yucky and unhealthy anti-fungal before they are shipped out?

I visited a biodynamic greenhouse nearby (Fields of Gold Beyond Organics Greenhouse in Mills River, NC) & they said that an Israeli organic greenhouse consultant came to the US to give them a consultation & was so impressed with the vitality of their plants he wanted to move here & learn biodynamic gardening. It is fascinating, with homeopathic brews of minerals, etc. added to the soil...alchemy, really. They use a special mixer that creates a vortex, moving a certain direction to mix the homeopathic "tea" to nourish the plants. You have so many people wanting to grow their own produce, please show us how Rudolf Steiner's biodynamic method adds minerals to our depleted U.S. soil/gardens!!!! Biodynamic gardening!!!!

How to tell if certain nuts are really raw. Pure Jeevan just published a tip about soaked almonds--the skin slides right off of the pasteurized ones. There was also a comment about the fat almond milk not separating if the nuts are pasteurized. I wonder if this is true, and if there are similar tests that can be done with other nuts. 2. What to look for when buying certain items, to know that they are raw, or at least minimally processed: olive oil, seaweed, sea salt, green powders, etc. 3. I've often heard that we're supposed to discard seeds that float. Is this true, and why? Same question on foam from fresh juice. Here are some “How To’s” that I’d like to see:

Im going to look into it" I'd be interested in knowing if what Chris & Sara were told applies to all imported young thai coconuts. Another great show might be a "how to help people in identifying and avoiding GMO's" Thanks. “Kev, we heard from our CoCo guy here that the Thai Cocos that are imported are GMO’d, that is why they’re sweeter????
