Why can't you just eat all that stuff straight? It seems to me the mixture would be revolting, but we like all the separate elements, and they're all a frequent part of my cooking and baking.
Just curious: are tropical items like mangoes and avocados hard to come by in Alaska? We have them year round here, and they do not grow near here, so I don't know why they wouldn't be equally available everywhere, but my dd complains that she can't get good avocados a lot of times in St. Louis.

Have a great day!

Guys, I just have to interject here. Yes, apple seeds contain cyanogenic acids but the impact is very minimal. Please don't rely on Scopes as your guide. Try to only check out reputable scientific websites for your health answers. I can help you with that if you need it.
If you want to be healthy, the bottome line is....90% of your diet should come from whole foods (fruits and vegetables). Animal protein should be a condiment, if not eliminated completely.
