Where did so many people get the idea that DC members don't take shortcuts? I'm bewildered.
I have not bothered to talk about kale as it's horrible and only fit for cattle food! Don't care if it has all sorts of nutritional value - let it do the cows good.
The usual advice is to eat a mixture of colours to get the best nutritional benefit from your consumption of fruit and vegetables. See this link:3. There are many many kinds of vegetables but is it OK to only stick to one or two types of them I like? or is it MUCH better to take it all different types of vegetalbes
Lots of us do one or two potatoes in the microwave instead of the oven.
i think vegetables not need to cook
you kill the originality and vitamix in in becomes less
if you mean cooking potatoes etc messed potatoes yes true this is easier to digest but if u mean cooking or fry pepper or cabbage or union or salad leaves this is not needed at all better it raw or make salads
i mean cooking vegetables not cooking in general thats first thing dont mess it up
Cooking also kills pathogens that may be on the veggies and makes them easier to digest. it doesnt mean easier digestion makes better to the body in general and provides more vitamins..
cooking is good but we discuss here cooking vegetables i mean salads, carrots, salad leaves etc which is not nessesary

Sorry, but I can not digest raw veggies in any form. I would love to have a leaf of lettuce on a tomato, cuke sandwich. But I have enough trouble with just the tomato and peeled cuke.
I take it by your name you are a salesperson of the Vitamix machine. Therefor you are promoting all of its supposed benefits. No one method of preparation can possibly be the one and only approved method.
and i see your good chef thats why u stick to point that everything must be cooked and aganist veggie policy
You're not paying attention to what I said. But that's not surprising since you're apparently only here to try to sell the vitamix theories.
Addie, I'm a little confused. I intended to reply to the vitamix person and I'm not sure if you were responding to that person or me.
I know you can't eat many raw veggies for medical reasons; same with me. My point to the vitamix seller is still that not all veggies are best eaten raw, even for the majority of the population.
And vitamix seller - I am not a chef. The title you see comes from me being a long-time member of this forum.
I was thanking you for your response to Vitamix. The rest of my response was in general to the forum. But mostly to Vitamix again. I guess I was intending to agree with what you had been saying all along. That there are more ways than eating raw roughage to get your nutrition. If there is a side, Go GG! You can present an argument better than me.
