It's easy to be a junk food vegetarian and even a vegan. In this day and age, there are a variety of processed foods to ease the transition to a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle. Consume to much of these foods and it can be debated if you made any beneficial change at all.
Veggie dogs, chick nuggets and soy ice cream can provide protein but no fiber and unwanted fat. It is now a major topic of debate, weather soy products are healthy for you, and many are choosing to back away from the soy.
A raw food diet is a night and day difference from most vegetarian/vegan diets. It was so life changing to experience the varieties of tastes and the feeling of wellness I experienced when I visited my first raw food potluck over a year ago. It motivated me to read more about raw foods. I discovered that I knew nothing about raw food. So I continued to go to the potlucks, read several books on the topic, and try to make more raw foods at home. Then after a feast of a holiday, in January, I made a decision to be 100% raw. And even though I fell off the wagon a couple times, it fuels my motivation to be 100% raw.
Why? Because nothing feels better.
