Sprouts
New age, hippie and alfalfa come to mind to most when sprouts are mentioned. Sprouts are simply baby plants – the basis of what most of us eat. Sprouts are more nutritious than fully-grown plants and are one of the most, if not the most enzyme rich food around – enzymes are the good stuff to help you digest your food so you can absorb the nutrients correctly.
Toronto Sprouts at 720 Bathurst Street in Toronto, grows some of the best sprouts around. They also have a great space that is under-utilised; we’ve been having monthly raw food potlucks there since November 2007. They also have a cafe that serves mostly raw food that is relatively unknown. Today, I had the opportunity to drop by Toronto Sprouts and have lunch.
