Did u watch the Wife Swap where the family was eating raw foods?

Question

How could they not get sick from eating raw chicken and meat? And how in the world does butter and clay work as a toothpaste?

Answer 1

Hey. Stop insulting my family!

Answer 2

Their GROSS! They were so use to eating raw foods that when they ate regular food it didn't digest well. I agree people need to know what their eating, but not cooking it is just stupid.

That whole bit about the toothpaste was pure nasty. The mom was talking about how regular toothpaste ruins people's teeth. Bull crap, I say. Crest and Colgate seem to work well with clear minded sane people cause they are making bank!

And when they went to get checked out, the nutritionist didn't have any reason for them not getting sick by eating uncooked foods. The dad said they don't get colds, so some kind of weird way it works for them. There some out of this world weirdos on that show.

Answer 3

I might be thinking of the wrong one (hard to believe there's more than one family eating raw food), but if it's the one where their kitchen didn't even have a stove and the Mom thought that she would eventually be able to "eat the sun" for energy, they were also vegetarians.

I think her argument against cooking (which she never made on camera) was that heating is a form of predigestion, so it slightly lowers the nutritional value of your food. Somebody should have told her that your body cannot assimilate nutritional value from food that's giving it diarrhea, anyway; besides, the reason that we cook food is that the predigestion is helpful to our bodies because it helps us break the food down further, so we do less work to get the vitamins that we need.

Answer 5

that was sssoooooo weird and gross. i can't believe they got sick from eating cooked food once! and that butter thing didn't make sense either. isn't brushing your teeth supposed to get the food off? that was putting food right on! those were some of the wierdest people i've ever seen. (no offense to them or anything)

Answer 6

Yea they have the weirdest families on there, a few days ago a family's profession was bottling deer pee and they did it IN their house! And there was this family that said they were pirates and didn't pay bills! WEIRD!!!!

Answer 7

i have no idea how they ate that without getting sick, i guess they are just lucky, and the toothpaste thing obviously didn't work... did you see their teeth... they were yellow

Answer 8

Answer 9
