I agree. But I am not so "purist". I avoid cooked food because the taste (and the excessive amount of salt) disturb me. I don't think that an isolated cooked meal would harm me, but I do not enjoy cooked food so much. The taste of pasteurized juice is still close to raw (it even has a taste-change). BTW, many dried fruits (like prunes) are pasteurized. I once found sun-dried blueberries... which were THEN pasteurized! Best wishes, Jean-Louis
