Thanks for your comment! And wha...Hi Vagabonding, <br /><br />Thanks for your comment! And what an incredible journey you seem to be on - I've enjoyed looking at your blog too. <br /><br />It's nice to be contacted by fruitarians who get to speak in their own words- I'm sure that the very context in which Anne was interviewed - for an article titled "extreme eaters" - affected the way in which fruitarianism was presented. It's still not my cup of tea, but I've enjoyed checking out how you and Mango are experiencing it. <br /><br />Cheers, and safe travels, <br />RachelMiss Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03604850110464039541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108685068293402971.post-82209260113385076452009-05-15T19:06:00.000+10:002009-05-15T19:06:00.000+10:00I agree with Mango on fruitarianism...I have been ...I agree with Mango on fruitarianism...I have been loving this way of life.<br />I do enjoy the way you write your blog.

Personally I am beyond being upset about how others might or mightn't perceive fruitarianism and fruitarians in general.. We are each only responsible for our own lives and choices<BR/><BR/>fruit is, without any doubts in my mind, the highest and most nourishing and cleansing of all foods.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://mangodurian.blogspot.com/2008/06/reasons-to-be-fruitarian.html" REL="nofollow" TITLE="">Reasons to be fruitarian</A><BR/><BR/>peace,<BR/>mango the fruitarian.<BR/>ps by the way, the 4th interview on the list is with Anne Osborne (AKA Fruitbat Anne)Fruitarian Mangohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02769115272900669567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108685068293402971.post-35947315252129895272009-03-04T10:17:00.000+11:002009-03-04T10:17:00.000+11:00Hi there Fruitarian Mango, Thanks for your comment...Hi there Fruitarian Mango, <BR/><BR/>Thanks for your comment and the link! It's great to hear from someone who has chosen a path even more misunderstood than veganism :) and I appreciate your comments. <BR/><BR/>I hope that my piece didn't imply that I thought fruitarians themselves were loopy; like many people it's just not something I can understand easily. I was though, as I said, really impressed by Ms Osborne's approach and knowledge, and I have a lot of respect for her position after reading the article. <BR/><BR/>Thanks once again for the input; I'll be sure to read your interviews,. <BR/><BR/>Cheers, <BR/>Miss TMiss Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03604850110464039541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108685068293402971.post-79743285777554620042009-03-04T09:03:00.000+11:002009-03-04T09:03:00.000+11:00Hi, I'm also a fruitarian of long standing, and kn...Hi, I'm also a fruitarian of long standing, and know Ms Osborne personally, along with several other fruitarians (including my partner, kveta), many of whom I've interviewed on my blog: <A HREF="http://mangodurian.blogspot.com/2008/02/list-of-interviews-with-fruitarians.html" REL="nofollow">List of interviews with fruitarians</A>.<BR/><BR/>I have been a vegan for ethical reasons for the past 22 years, and understanding the ethical and environmental benefits of fruitarianism has been a series of gradual revelations for me, and although I fully understand that to an uninformed eye, we may all too easily come across as crackpots, personally I think adopting a fruit diet, is probably one of the healthiest and most sane choices any of us could possibly make.<BR/><BR/>peace,<BR/>mango the fruitarian.Fruitarian Mangohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02769115272900669567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108685068293402971.post-60913735171921372292009-03-03T18:45:00.000+11:002009-03-03T18:45:00.000+11:00I missed this article but saw it was mentioned on ...I missed this article but saw it was mentioned on a raw forum due to the fruitarian. I'm glad she came across as sane and not loopy :) I think her diet is 100x healthier than Mr Primal Diet, I can't believe he makes his do it too, blërg!xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16888982130221268208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108685068293402971.post-29597807657020083742009-03-01T20:29:00.000+11:002009-03-01T20:29:00.000+11:00I think I was far more 'dietarily dismissive' than...I think I was far more 'dietarily dismissive' than you. In fact, I'm pretty sure I yelled 'CRACKPOTS!' <BR/><BR/>In particular the raw meat guy was disturbing. Vegan parents often come under fire for their dietary choices; I wonder how much flak this guy gets? Even when I was a meat eater I would *never* have eaten a pure meat diet; common sense says NO. Wrong. Fatty, weird, unhealthy. Not to mention completely lacking in sensual pleasure. Ew.lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01360941729345573146noreply@blogger.com
