Summary: A jem to have in any library
Comment: While I wish the publisher had used less toxic printing materials (my copy still smells like ink and dye a year later), the book is amazing. Her recipes are fantastic and the natural living advise is practical and doable. No matter if you are a raw food person or not you will enjoy these recipes.

Summary: great! most used raw food book i own.
Comment: this is a wonderful book, and i really didn't mind looking at ani at all ;) every recipe i have tried (and i have tried them, this book, to me ,is so inviting, the recipes beautiful) has been excellent. in fact, i have a mom who loves her meat but couldn't get enough of the flavor of ani's veg pate. i also made the "tuna" salad at another lunchoen and my mom was sure there was tuna fish in it. these are easy recipes that have complex flavor. she hasn't let me down yet.

Summary: Don't waste your money
Comment: I've read and prepared recipes from at least 6 raw cookbooks that are on the market - and this is by far the worst. It's not much more than a vanity piece that is low on nutritional content, low on key information on raw food prep or flavor variety. But then again, she was trained by Juliano - not a surprise!

Customer Rating:

Summary: Positive, encouraging vibe
Comment: I'm convinced that eating raw, live foods is the path to optimal health. Perhaps not exclusively, but the more raw foods you consume, the more energetic and less sickly you are likely to be. Having said that, I have approached many books on preparing raw foods and recipes which have struck me as either a tad goofy or too dehydrator-(or equivalent)dependent and therefore off-putting. Ani's book is inspirational and straightforward. The kitchen, for me, is an intimidating place; though I know that we should all let our food be our medicine, and our medicine be our food. In light of that assertion, this book is just what the doctor ordered. It's encouraging, the recipes are straightforward and, quite frankly, doable on the first go, which with any "cook"book is a huge plus. The tone is also agreeable and light- not at all exclusive or elitist. Hope this helps.
