So this is my idea,
Someone close to me is doing a raw food diet, and that really made me think, I think that it is a really good idea. Basically what I want to do is take a different angle at it. What I want to do is this, make my diet entirely of fruits, vegetables, and water. But where it gets a bit silly is that I want to basically just eat the items with no cooking but also with no sort of preparation. So eating just a raw whole tomato, or lettuce. I want to eat like an animal would, not using dishes or cutlery, buying fresh food and not using a fridge even.
I really want to see for myself whether or not all of these recommended daily intake levels have any meaning. In an ideal sense I would like to do this with only locally available foods and just skip supermarkets all together but since it is winter that isn't going to be possible.
This is the statement, I would like to commit to one month of eating only fruit and vegetables, drinking only water, and not creating meals but simply eating one item or another in their original form without any sort of preparation, and even eating pieces that are not traditionally eaten (within reason)
We spend so much of our planet's wealth because we think that we are not animals, and we think that we need to have our food put together in a certain way for us because that is what we have been taught. I want to prove to myself that I am an animal.
