That's funny, I actually read that story and several other attacks on

raw foodism, not on any newspaper but...on a video game discussion group named

alt.lemmings

There is a looooong thread there about raw foodism from both sides. This

death story was posted there by someone named Dana Carpenter, I think.

She's the author of some low-carb diet book.

 

Here's the link to the group:

The thread is named " My questions on raw foodism " .
