Can we take a small look at another persepctive? Whole Foods deals with small independent companies that create quality, organic products and compete with the mega food corporations. They sell organic produce and products from local farmersand companies. They don't mass buy ingredients from questionable sources and use only the best. This increases cost factors. It is not as if Whole Foods sells Kellogs or General Mill products, prepackages them as "organic" and marks up the price. You are paying for the quality of the produce and support small businesses and farmers. Also, I have never seen shelves and shelves of gluten free options at my local Safeway. I would like to suggest you not knock Whole Foods. Many people have organic options now because of them. If Toronto has an organic store with quality products at a lower price - just shop there, but you are not punishing Whole Foods by your comments you are just discouraging people from supporting their worthy suppliers.

I didn't have arame, so I used the lazy way out and cut strips of toasted nori with scissors. I just tossed those with the warm kale and they were delicious! I made it for myself when the BF was working late. I raved so much about it that I had it for lunch the next day, then we made it again the next evening so he could try it. Yum!!!!!!

Your pictures of this salad are gorgeous! By saying that it doesn't taste fishy, you may have convinced me to give arame a try, which isn't a small feat. Next time I see some, I'll take a bite and see if I can enjoy it. So glad to see you back and feeling better!

And glad I was finally able to access your blog - for some reason I couldn't for a while. I love the kale salad from Raw Food Made Easy For 1 or 2. Even though raw kale sounds disgusting, this salad is delicious. Even my 9 year old loves it! If you want the recipe, let me know and I will e-mail it to you. Glad you’re back and feeling better!

(Well, glowing inside, anyway) ;) Courtney, Thanks so much! It does feel better. Hope you enjoy the salad! Andrea, Thanks so much! And I agree, arame is the most visually pleasing of the sea veggies! VeggieGirl, Thanks and Happy July 4 to you! Glad to hear you like the sea veggies--hope you enjoy the salad! Kim, Kale is my favorite green, too. :) And thanks for the good wishes re: ACD and health! Cheryl, Thanks! I think you'll enjoy this salad, too.:) Katerina, Turns out (here, anyway) that WF no longer carries this salad--but here's your chance to try it at home. ;) Claire, Yep, kale is the bonus! Hope you like it. :) Shellyfish, Thanks so much! What if you didn't tell M.Fish what it was? (just an idea. . .) ;) Meghan, Thanks so much! Feeling good to be back. ttfn300, Yay--thanks so much! Hope you enjoy the book--and the salad! :) Diann, Yes, it is rather dear, as they used to say, isn't it? But much less expensive at home. And yes, it does feel a bit chaotic around here at times! Johanna, Well, Happy Independence to you, too! And I agree--even though it's cooked, it feels more summery, for some reason. But good any time! Alisa, Aw, shucks, thanks re: the report card. ;) About the umlaut, I just typed it in the body of the post, copied and pasted it to the title (because I couldn't figure out how to get it there, either!). Sneaky!! Mom and Rita, Thanks so much--great to be back! And while it may not be exactly like the salad. . . the nutroast is one of my faves. In fact, I can't wait to make another one once I can eat mushrooms again! (Because they ARE fungi, you know--sorta like candida!) Giz, I know--one of the best salad bars ever. But whooooaaaahhhh, pricey. Erin, This is a good way to get some of that seaweed in--I don't eat enough, either. Michelle, Never tried wakame, but since I love arame, I figure I'll still with it! And re: sticking with it. . . well, when you feel that crappy, sorta makes you willing to stick to the diet if it helps!! Lisa, Thanks so much! This is a great recipe to get more of that seaweed--hope you like it! Jessy, Great that you're trying GF for a spell! I hardly notice a difference in cooking any more (though of course I'm not baking, so that may change!). Hope you like the salad! Hannah, This IS good for light dishes--I can have just this for dinner and be happy. Alice, Thanks so much! Much appreciated. :) Ashley, Sounds like it's time to take the plunge! Go for that seaweed!! ;) Jes, Aw, thanks! And how nice to hear from someone else who loves seaweed this much (well, I love it in this dish, anyway!) Nora,
