FEATURED POSTS

WHO’S TO BLAME FOR FOOD WASTE

Melissa @Dyno-mom must have been reading my mind when she posted this insightful piece about the value of cheap food in our society.  (Hint: There is no value and thus we easily waste)

DO YOU WANT A RECEIPT?  (BPA)

Lyza @Chic Shades of Green brought us a couple great posts last week.  This one is referencing the dilemma of taking a cash register receipt even though most are laced with BPA.  The other was an article on xanthan gum and whether it is good to eat.

OIL-PULLING

Doug @Gaia Health Blog brought us a video tutorial on how to do oil pulling.  He also explains some of the benefits.  It’s great for oral health but also aids in overall toxin removal from the body!

OTHER GREAT TIPS AND RECIPES

HOMEMADE HEALTHY FRUIT SNACKS

EDIBLE WEEDS

THE RULES:

**NEW RULE: Due to the fact that we are trying to promote real, whole foods on our blog carnival, we are no longer allowing posts that LINK DIRECTLY to another blog carnival. This is because we have noticed that various blog carnivals have different criteria for linking that may not line up with what we at Real Food Freaks consider real food. To keep the integrity of our mission, please do not link up your link ups.

**Secondly, (this is not a new rule but a reiteration of an old rule) — if you use wheat or grains of any type they must be soaked, sprouted or fermented directly in the instructions of how to make the recipe. We have been a little lax in pulling down posts that do not comply, but unfortunately we are getting more and more of these types of posts. We don’t want to pull any links down, so if you need an explanation see this post on grains.

1. Everyone who posts must place a link back to this blog on the post they are linking (not your home page or other page). Freaky Friday is about sharing what you have done as well as others. You will be removed if you don’t link back.

2. REAL FOOD only! No processed (this means refined sugars too), canned, margarine, hydrogenated vegetable oils, unfermented soy, etc. If using grains they must be PROPERLY prepared (soaked, sprouted, or fermented). Also, please be aware that we will not allow non-homeopathic, store or pharmaceutical type products being promoted here (especially related to skin care or health). Naturally derived ingredients only please.

3. Please, no product promos! Feel free to post giveaways here, but if you are selling a product or gain from the sale of any item please do not post it here.

4. Please help us promote the link up with a Retweet and / or a Facebook link to this page and any sites you visit! This benefits EVERYONE! Be sure to comment on others posts as well and let the bloggers know you were there.

5. Please leave a brief comment about your post. If this is your first time commenting on our blog or are posting a link, you will have to wait to be moderated before your link shows up.

If you don’t have a blog we still want to hear from you! Please leave your tips or recipes in the comments.

Thank you!
