Steve, thank you for doing this 30-day raw foods trial, I have been wanting to try this for a long time but just haven't done it yet. I love all the detail you put into your blog entries and the pictures of your meals. The one thing I would like to see added is a cost analysis. I know that grains and starches are very cheap compared to any other food, so I am curious as to how much more it costs to eat only fruits and veggies as compared to grain-based meals, or if eliminating the higher-priced food items (such as meat and dairy for me, or soy-based products for you) balances out the expense. But even if you aren't able or willing to add this information, I'll be watching your experiment with avid interest! Thanks.
