In order to truly judge the efficasy of my all-raw diet I must try some
non-raw foods--that was my primary motivation. Finding out that they
weren't all that evil was something of a surprise to me. I felt no
particular unbalance--then again, I'm not sure some GCB feels he's
unbalaanced in any way, you know? ;)

When we lived in Bangkok (for 4 years) we were essentially fruitarian for
months at a stretch (though frutarian with durian 5 months of the year
isn't really fruitarian ;)).

My only gripes about instincto are that I'm 10-15 pounds overweight, and
Melisa had two miscarries--both gripes in which too much fruit may be a
contributing factor. In all, it seems to me that RAF, not fruit, is what
provides me the greatest benefit.

SO WOULD I! How about you survey them and report back, eh?

Second person info won't tell you that, I'm afraid...
