Was showing my friend today how to make a smoothie. She is so eager to learn about Raw and it is a joy to watch her experience things for the first time that I have been taking for granted. While watching her I saw with my own eyes the learning process of the taste buds. At first, the different flavors were so strange to her. I started slow and had her try a few things solo to see if they were pleasant. I enjoyed myself so much at having her taste things that she had never had. The mango wasn't so much of a hit but that is not surprising as it can be very exotic for a newbie :) I cut her her very first fresh Pineapple (which she loved) and showed her how to blend up Baby Spinach in her blender. So after a little bit of this and that we came up with a combo that she liked. She, like so many people, are totally unaccustomed to really tasting fruit in its natural form and for those of us who eat Raw forget quickly how different our own tastes once were. Such a pleasure to show others how good real food can be.
