I've stayed out of the back and forth comments about NFL, but I need to put my 2 cents into the issue. I have nothing wrong with thinking that cooked foods can be addicting. Anything that the body can not use to maintain life is a stimulant and all stimulants, including too much fruit, are addicting if one has an addictive personality. The craving for stimulants is physiological and cannot be overcome by will power. A campaign to prohibit cooked food or fruit is a waste of time and to degrade people who may be addiction prone, whether cooked foood eaters or fruit eaters, is offensive. It's like prohibiton. It doesn't work. I have lost friends because of my enthusiasm for raw food, and also because of my enthusiasm for recovering from addictions. What is sad is that I lost the chance to be of help because of my wanting to help too much. So I would like to think I can put my opinion forth, and if people are interested, fine. If they are not, then live and let live. Everyone has a right to their own path. My best, Ellie
