FUDE IS THE MOTHER OF ALL ADDICTIONS

December 11, 1999

FUDE: Raw-Foodist propaganda term for the junk

everybody else eats. All the old people you see with ugly

sagging flesh are FUDE-victims, their lifespans halved.

FUDE addiction is the indispensible prerequisite for

all the subsequent addictions: tobacco, alchohol,

opiates, coke, speed, etc. I pity the hapless infants the

most, the way they cry when they are " hungry " (i.e.,

undergoing painful FUDE-withdrawals, even from their

FUDE-denatured mother's milk). I didn't realize this until

recently, when at a wedding reception (two months into 100%

raw), I tried some champagne and nearly spit it out at

the strength of the industrial-poison sensation of

revulsion in my mouth. All my cells gave a

kindergarten-chorus of " Yuck! " Another craving long gone. Its so nice

to be past all that. I wish the whole world already

was. In that moment I knew that the counterfeit

good-feeling that alchohol used to do for me (i.e., euphoria,

as distinct from its dizzying effects on balance)

was just a simulation of how I now feel all the time.

All those addicts are really trying to do is feel

like they would on 100% raw.

I hate to agree with anyone but he's right, FUDE

is the mother of all addictions. And what is so

insidious is that it is normal. A great deal of our

lives are in response to withdrawal symptoms from

FUDE. Imagine what this does to our minds. However the

greatest difficulty might be withdrawing from normality.

After all, most want to belong more than they want to

be free. But we want to be free from

FUDE! And in the Raw Food Club, freedom from FUDE is

normal. We create our own normality.
