Both Gardenburger and Morningstar Farms now produce a product that looks like ribs and is smothered in barbecue sauce. It cooks up in the microwave or oven. Have you tried either one, and if you have, what did you think of the taste and texture?

I have recently tried to incorporate much more raw food into my lifestyle. I understand all the health benefits and see it on my skin as well. Certain healthy foods, however, are said to release more nutrients when cooked slightly. I have heard this about broccoli and tomatoes. Do most raw foodists still incorporate a few cooked items from time to time, or are there many strict purists out there?

Be it carbon emmision wise or the amount of time,energy and resources needed to manufacture the products, what is it that we need to eat that is good for us as well as the environment.

There are many veggie burgers out there, frozen, canned, dried,etc. But which brand makes your favourite veggie burger?

How do you really know if something you are being sold as 'organic' produce actually is?

Fair Trade coffee, for instance, is grown by the indigenous peoples of the coffee growing region, the coffee is grown in a way that doesn't deplete their soil, and is bought at a price that guarantees a living wage to the growers. Sound good?

how our animals (to those of us that eat meat) and shot full of growth hormones to make them grow, rather than giving them the proper fodds with which to gain weight. Do you take this in consideration when you are deciding weather or not to buy organic foods?
