Oh yes, I forgot to say that I like some roots (carrots, jewel yams
[thanks to Kirt for the suggestion] and celery roots). I can eat
a few others too, but with less pleasure.

You can read my posts in the archives. My former e-mail address was
[log in to unmask]   and I started posting on this list on Feb 28th 1996.
Remarks about my personal experience are scattered from 02/28 until now.
Maybe I will write one day about my conception of instincto, raw food

Best,
