My motivation to eat healthier is to avoid the inflammation (arthritis, vestibular migraine) that come with wheat and gluten in all its glorious forms (and even amaranth and quinoa), dairy and egg, even corn, corn starch, everything but kale and salmon, I swear.... what is left... fresh fruit, but no potatoes. Ok. Deep breath. I can do this. No corn, no potatoes, but there are still raw foods (cooked foods, foods fried in olive oil, any food!) that I can eat without feeling sick. I might even FEEL BETTER like you do, @rawadventuress, but I have to re-train my palate, my Midwest Farmer's Daughter palate, corn-fed and wheat bread bred.... thank you for the inspiration.
