Shawn, I really enjoyed the information on olives and the list on raw foods. I had no idea that green olives are unripe olives? I also am surprised about the peppercorns in papaya’s! I will def never scoop them out again. I have been using more coconut oil. I stopped cooking with Olive Oil but still use on salad dressing. Thanks again for your blogs. So informative! Keep em coming.
PS Have you blogged about “soaking nuts” Why do some people soak them?

I’ve wondered about the papaya seeds before… I’d tasted one and it was not bad, but as you said, usually scoop them out to the trash ;(

This is a typical “conditioning” effect. Many of the things we do, say and eat are usally related to a “learned habit”. When presented with good information like this, it is easier to question those habits.

Thanks Shawn!
