Raw Food Cafes - Experience Healthy Delicious Food at Raw Food Cafes

Raw Food Cafes

Raw food cafes
have increased in number over the past 10 years, as more people seek
healthier diets and lifestyles. Raw food cafes serve no cooked foods.
Instead, they serve an assortment of fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds,
and sprouted grains—including raw desserts, raw pizza, raw “lasagna”
and more. Surprisingly, raw food tastes good—and best of all, it’s good
for you. Currently there are 95 raw food cafes & restaurants
worldwide—however, this number also includes a handful of vegetarian
cafes that are partially raw (restaurants that serve both cooked and
raw food selections).

Raw Food Cafe Food Preparation

Raw
food cafes use several tools to prepare food for customers: a food
processor, a high-powered blender, juicers, and variable-temperature
dehydrators, among others. Absolutely no microwaves, ovens, or stoves
are used. This is done to preserve the live enzymes presents in all raw
food. Live enzymes are destroyed when food is cooked beyond 114 degrees
Fahrenheit.
