raw foods: I want to eventually have this lifestyle, but I know it's going to be hard in social situations. What do you do to avoid being awkward? Not many menu's have raw vegan items, also when you go over someones house for dinner, what do you do if they are not serving raw foods?|||Eat the least processed crap, I don't go to Olive Garden and places out of a can. If Im paying I go someplace good with alot of choice, I don't say yes to any old crap, I don't believe in bad food so I do't eat it. I mention I eat raw stuff when I go to someone's house, but it's not a life or death diet, the reason is health only, it's not like eating cooked food once is going to kill anything, or do anything except make me physically feel worse the next day. Really not a big deal. This isn't a ethically- based type diet. Nor do I call myself a raw foodist.|||Just,try & learn about the place ahead of time & see on their website(if they have one)if they have any raw,vegan food-You can also ask when you're there--Vegan 4 3 years cause i love animals-hope this helps!
