humanimal: While it is perfectly respectable that you eat a completely raw vegan diet, some people eat raw dairy. While it may not work for everyone, it does work for some people. I think this recipe would be great with raw yoghurt. What is more concerting is the tofu, which is pasteurized.

Hi, Humanimal: Do you still have the article on nutritional yeast? I've been feeding my baby dog that to supplement his raw diet; I'm now very concerned.

I would like to read that article on nutritional yeast, if you still have it. Thanks!

Aha, never mind - I see that you have a topic devoted to it in the forums. I will check that out. Thanks.

Vaughn, I would be interested in seeing the article on nutritional yeast. I use it occasionally in "cheesy"-type spreads/pates, and have been fluctuating back and forth on whether it is of any value to my family's diet. I like that it contains valuable nutrition, but hate that we are eating fungus. Thanks in advance.

Thanks to Vaughn, we now have a "raw cashew yogurt":http://goneraw.com/recipes/171-Cashew-Yogurt that would likely work quite well with this recipe!

wow! I sure hope you mean nut yogurt. Regular yogurt is a big no no. Make sure to take it easy on the tofy and the nutritional yeast. I have read article stating that nutritional yeast is formaldehyde. If you want this article just ask.
