Guest guest Posted August 10, 1999 Report Share Posted August 10, 1999 I sit here eating an apple and I love going down to my fruit market with all kinds of fresh fruit piled high.<br><br>I take another bite and I wonder: is raw food good for you? Who is it good for? In what circumstance? What is the evidence?<br><br>Are there any longitudinal, in depth studies?<br><br>Why is it presented as a moral good?<br><br>Why is the language of pop psychology used to defend it?<br><br>How could you explain it to an Aboriginal man or a Bangladeshi woman?<br><br>Is it possible to express evidence against a raw food diet? Is it even possible to express an opinion against raw food?<br><br>I don't know the answers to these questions, but I like to ask them as I cut open my papaya* and fill it with banana and passionfruit.<br><br>What do you think?<br><br>Victor.<br><br>*PS: we call it paw paw. Do you prefer papaya or paw paw? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
