My last post was so long ago...I've been doing a detox and focusing on that blog forgetting to blog to this one. Does anyone read this or is this pointless for me to do it?! Thanks!

Missing tortillas or bagels or english muffins? This product is sure to capture your cravings! This product by Raw Makery is so delicious I'm craving them! I was eating them for breakfast with some chocolate coconut butter or macadamia nut butter spread on top. The rawtilla is crunchy but seriously has the flavor of cinnamon raisin bread! There were about 6 in the package which was definitely not enough :) I could have probably at the entire package at one sitting, but I wanted to savor them. They don't sell this specific product at the local raw stores, but they do sell others which I have tried including their garlic bread and their krispys. All of their products I've tried are packed with flavor, which is a must in the Raw Diet! My thoughts are to go out and try this product!

Wow...cinnamon cookies! I think I need to invest in these...or else figure out how to make them! These are outstanding! I picked these up when I went to SunPower Natural Cafe. These are by far the best raw cookie I have ever tasted (even better than mine I have to say). The flavor is so delicious, and they are chewy and crunchy at the same time! I am so in love with these. ORDER THEM- you will not be disappointed! They have a carmel-y texture to them so they are perfectly balanced. I can't talk anymore about them because i'm salivating, am detoxing, and have none of these left in the pantry! so order some for me too k?

This bread was a treat! I wish it was larger so I could buy some and make a sandwich with it :) The flavor was lemon and the brand was Rayo De Sol. You can see on their blog they make different flavors. The pieces are about 2 inch squares and are just enough when you are craving something sweet but not too sweet. They are soft like bread is and the small little square packs in so much flavor! The lemon was also very natural with no artificial taste. I can't wait to order some of the other flavors! They also had nuts in them (but I don't think the base was nuts-just added in) which gave the texture of banana nut bread to me! This is definitely a new favorite of mine and I will be placing an order as soon as my detox is done :)
This product I enjoyed for lunch a few days ago with homemade almond milk, was a great mixture of sweet and salty. It was made with dates, but it wasn't too sweet, which is what I like. And although there were nuts in it already, the almond milk didn't overpower the flavor of the Muesli. My favorite part of this mix was the chewiness and crunchiness and how it complemented each other. No flavor or texture outshone the other. It was a perfect blend and made me very happy to eat lunch! And the best part was that it was SO filling and lasted me a good few hours!
Other benefits:
- gluten free
- raw (dehydrated at a low temperature)
- no pesticides or gmo
- increases bioactivity and digestability
- all natural
Shout out to Mom and Me for making such a great product! Maybe some day we can get it in Chicago?!

back to reality.
Boo. It was a fun trip but I'm home safe and sound!
The blog is NOT over! I am going to try and post at least once a week, if not more of raw products that i find and test! Stay tuned and let me know if there is a product out there you are curious about and I'll see if I can get ahold of it to try :)
Stay Raw!
Descend back to San Fran today! Kaili and I woke up and went for smoothies amongst a few other stores looking for dried mango! Every place was sold out and the only kind Whole Foods had were mango strips! SOOOOO not the same as the mango slices. So i didn't get them. I did get a new product that I hadn't seen which Kaili and I found rather tasty! I must duplicate them!
Then we went back to Kaili's and Lauren came over. It was great to see her! It was great to see them both! Brought back many memories from Paris :) I eventually left around 12 and drove to San Francisco! Of course my first stop was Cafe Gratitude! I was dying for an ice cream sandwich :) I also had the spring rolls which were delicious!
Afterwards I went shopping...didn't buy anything :) Then Joy, who I know from IU, met up with me and we did more shopping! I didn't buy anything :) After that we went to Whole Foods and they only had mango strips! WHAT!?!? i mean...bring back the slices!!! I hope when i get home they don't have only strips! I bought some. Then we went to dinner at Alive. We shared the sushi and I got the mendocino sea palms which were outstanding. Joy got miso soup and the pesto sunflower burger with shitakes. We loved our dinners! Then came dessert. Joy is allergic to chocolate so she had the tangerine coconut cake and I had the black forest cake...both of them...YUCK! bland and not even exciting. Disappointing actually because dinner was so good!
