Uncooked food movement spawns new businesses

[Guest guest]

There is a very positive raw foods article at

http://www.bouldernews.com/bdc/business_plus/article/0,1713,BDC_2462_2

describing two new businesses (Jungle and NHU foods) that started up

in the Boulder, Colorado area. Part of the article is below.

 

Andy Hoart's physique is slim. He used to be 200 pounds in his 20s,

but now nearing the age of 50, the 5-foot-9-inch man is holding a

steady 145 pounds.

 

Hoart is among a growing number of Boulderites who are following an

uncooked — or raw food — lifestyle.

 

Since 1996, Hoart has funneled his philosophies into his NHU Foods, a

wholesaler of uncooked and unpasteurized foods. With about 100

different products, NHU specializes in nut and seed " meals, " where

fruit or vegetables are blended with nuts or seeds.
