If you munch on broccoli and caulflower at a party are you in dangered? <BR/><BR/>Last fall kale salad was my staple, I felt no ill effects. I understand the concept of what the website is saying but I think it has to be based on the individual. <BR/><BR/>If someone has a thyroid condition (or any medical condition), then maybe (or maybe not) they should take it the article in consideration. <BR/><BR/>Where does blending come into play? Can you do it? To make sure my children chew all there salad, we play the "Chewing Game." The person who takes the longest to chew their greens win. Is chewing our food to death put us at risk? <BR/><BR/>Thank you for passing the link along for my readers to decide what's best for them, individually.<BR/><BR/>And if anyone has more information on this subject please fell free to share. I would be interested in exploring this further.<BR/><BR/>Gina, you are rawsome for bringing it to our attention!Terihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03007887161487904305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382718559328626289.post-62627053582755490782007-10-30T16:46:00.000-03:002007-10-30T16:46:00.000-03:00Hey Teri,<BR/>I've read that eating cruciferous veggies raw (without culturing or cooking) can inhibit thyroid function. Have you ever heard of this? I'm wondering if the apple cider vinegar in this recipe pre-digests the greens enough to eliminate this danger? this is where I found the info:http://www.bodyecology.com/06/11/16/cook_vegetables_maximum_nutrition.phpGinawww.skrewtips.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382718559328626289.post-18426488243155189522007-10-30T12:29:00.000-03:002007-10-30T12:29:00.000-03:00Enthusia,<BR/><BR/>Kale is really good marinated. Try a little less vinegar and a bit of agave nectar and raisins. It's really good sweet.Terihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03007887161487904305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382718559328626289.post-79471955645119461382007-10-30T00:48:00.000-03:002007-10-30T00:48:00.000-03:00we grow so much kale and cabbage--can't wait to try this out.enthusiahttp://blog.enthusiasticallyhuman.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382718559328626289.post-17223589041070612102007-10-24T09:52:00.000-03:002007-10-24T09:52:00.000-03:00This is great stuff... My Mom had a friend back in the day who used to put her greens in the washing machine on warm. It was a great way to get a large amount of greens clean for the holiday.... She would still have to pull the veins though.TC_Spauldinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04625330941719804621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382718559328626289.post-87899844491455703452007-10-23T23:57:00.000-03:002007-10-23T23:57:00.000-03:00Damn, these are soo good and the instructions are really easy to understand.
