I think you misread, HUH...two of the men are vegans. That equals one dude. So...

Two male vegans PLUS one female vegan equals two chicks.

First became a vegetarian in 1967 after some profound spiritual experiences. Around 1971 began a raw food diet. It broke up at least one relationship and had some negative effects when later married. Stayed healthy throughout that period though and never became sick. Went back to eating a regular vegetarian diet when married until son decided he wanted to be a fisherman. Started eating fish again as had done as a kid. Raw food was fairly easy living on Kauai since there were an abundance of fruit trees and such that had been left in the abandoned old Filipino camps. Those have, however, been bulldozed and subsidized into overpriced housing. Have grown quite a few fruit trees but left them behind with frequent moves.

Clearly, you are both hiding in the "Closet!" Your collective machismo = fear/guilt...

I was going to let this pass but can't seem to forget your silly, catty, cowardly drivel. What's the problem? Have you been having your rear kicked by vegetarians? Have they been taking all the best babes? Go get yourself a cheeseburger. You'll get over it.

You sound bitter. Your raw food lifestyle didn't break up your relationships. Your personality did. You are humorless and the women found you annoying. Still do.

You're right I don't make a consistent habit of trying to be funny. You, however, seem to spend way too much time trying to be funny. Having read some of your stuff I'd have to say don't quit your day job.

A guy goes to the supermarket and notices an attractive woman waving at
him.

She says hello.

He's rather taken back because he can't place where he knows her from.

So he says,'Do you know me?'

To which she replies,'I think you're the father of one of my kids.

Now his mind travels back to the only time he has ever been unfaithful
to his wife and says,'My God, are you the stripper from my bachelor
party that I made love to on the pool table with all my buddies watching while your partner whipped my butt with wet celery???'

She looks into his eyes and says calmly,'No, I'm your son's teacher.'

What a bunch of crackpot idiots. Can't you write something more valuable and intelligent? Mark Reinsfeld and his wife are doing a worthwhile service to introduce healthy and tasty foods to people. Give them credit instead of making silly remarks.

A raw food diet is remarkably healthy but to do it right for any length of time requires an exceedingly strong will. You are going against the grain of society and have to endure a tremendous amount of static. California used to have Alta Dena raw dairy products but they don't seem to be selling that sort of thing in Hawaii any more. They may have been shut down. Sun baked bread, pies and such require some practice and was difficult on Kauai's north shore because of the frequent rains. Sprouts are healthy but can be messy depending on the way they are done. Smoothies are quick and easy. They don't require a lot of preparation. It works in places where cooking would be difficult. I've lived aboard sailboats and it enabled me to avoid using cooking facilities. You get used to making trail mixes and they can be stowed away in bulk. It's best to begin a raw food diet after a very long water fast. You spend a lot of time thinking about what you can prepare and you tend to stay committed to the diet after the lengthy fast. You also have a greater appreciation for the flavor of the food. It followed a ten day fast for me. I was absolutely amazed at how much energy I had when I first began the raw food diet. Upon breaking the fast I ran for many miles on the beach and was not fatigued but had to check my breathing because my lungs were unable to work that vigorously.

Raw food is amazing. It will improve your health, your emotions, your spirituality, your life.
Be open to change and improving the planet, the animals and yourself.
