The best spiritual diet.

[native]

Diana gives a good summary. I'm all for plant-based diets, but I find the raw argument to be subjective. The fact that many people have difficulty with it is pointing to something, and I personally don't like it at all myself.

Raw is the most natural from a nutritional sense, which seems to be the central argument, but it's worth asking what that is supposed to mean. What is natural? We're bound by our definitions. It seems that what we're seeking is what is most meaningful to us. Our experience as creators involves the ability to modify and create all sorts of wild wonderful things. I'm typing on a computer right now. Should I be using smoke signals instead because it's more "natural"?   Cooked food gives us all sorts of wonderful creations.

If a person enjoys raw food that's great. I find cooked foods to be really enjoyable and can't imagine living without them.

I'm working on a starch-based diet..it centers around beans, grains, and things like potatoes with added vegetables. I LOVE potatoes! I also happen to love beans. If I could pick one thing to eat for the rest of my life it'd be the potato.
