Wow, thanks for all the info and encouragement.
Someone gave me a $50 gift card for Macy's and I was able to go into the housewares dept. and purchase a mini-food chopper/grinder for a few bucks more with the gift card. (I just don't have room in our little kitchen for a big food processor, and seldom want to grind up that much stuff.) Anyway, the little processor gets used almost daily to make a concoction we call "chopped salad." It's got raw veggies, tahini, mayonnaise, sea salt, stevia, unpasteurized sauerkraut, and fresh lemon juice in it - today I put the lemon peel in too. Oh, also gelatin (Edgar Cayce recommended combining gelatin with raw fruit to eliminate mucous in the body) and flax seed meal. Oh, and the little processor is strong enough to grind up raw almonds and walnuts, which also go into the chopped salad.
We searched for unpasteurized sauerkraut because I figured when it gets canned or bottled they heat it up enough that it loses the natural fermentation that's so good for you. Finally found it in Whole Foods deli dept. Not too expensive, either.
We use the chopped salad just like a sandwich spread on any kind of whole grain bread or toast or pita.
Guess I should have posted this in that other thread, Monica!
We should all create a commune and grow our own food!
