Are these chopped tomato raw or have they been processed in some way. I only eat raw food.

They are sliced/chopped raw tomatoes (raw chunks of tomatoes) not cooked or processed in any way.

They are just like any canned food, have been par boiled for canning. Believe you will not be able to eat any packaged food if you only eat raw, as cooking or pasteurization is part of the packaging process.

The packaging process cooks them. They cannot remain raw, and still be packaged.

Yes they are raw and the texture can change. When it is put in water it becomes gel-like which is the way i like it. Other wise it is a crunchy type of seed

Nothing on the package about being Dutch processed. Label states "...processed at low temperatures..." which qualifies it as raw.

I never rinse them or soak them; use them full strenght, but only use a Tbsp or 2 depending on your taste. Chop them on a cutting board. Never add extra salt as they have plenty. I use them mostly in stir fry. Be sure to check your recipe. I use them with pork & chicken; but there are endless opportunities. Everything is to taste.

yes- but be aware that they have been treated and are not 100% dried raw-spanish ones are 100% raw and untreated

Everyone has their own taste but I happen to like eating dried mushrooms. As far as salads...ummm?? you have to remember that these are crisp. They are best, re-hydrated in water and then put in casseroles, pizza, chicken-a-la-king, spaghetti, creme sauces, etc. hope this helps you decide. I like them a lot. They sure are nice to grab a handful and throw them in. Plus they last for years and years. I've dried my own for years and tried these. I like these better than my own because they are freezed dried not just dehydrated (I dry all kinds of mushrooms). Dried or freezed dried is a GREAT way to have plenty on hand at all times. :)

I'm not certain, but believe they would be considered raw as they appear to be a simple mixture of nuts and fruit.

That question is best asked of LifeTime. It does not say "Raw" on packaging. HTH

They seem to be fresh - they smell good enough for me to eat :-) I'm sure they were baked several months ago though so don't think they are just freshly baked.

Cured, not cooked I believe. Exactly how cured, I'm not sure. They are good olives, we eat a lot of them.

I am not sure I have had dehydrated raw plaintains before, but I would say that these are definitely cooked.

Sounds like they are bad to me. You should contact the seller and/or amazon and let them know so that you can get your money back. None of the ones that I received were bitter. I tried to sprout one also, and it did not sprout. That leads me to believe that these are not truly raw. They were delicious though...

I ate them right out of the bag. They are dried. This was the cheapest I had found them and I am still kicking!

Raw. Never tried them cooked. Have to feed them in one or two at a time. I'm sure they could be cooked-though harder to handle, and messier.

Not sure, we had to play with the water levels to get it right. If they are completely raw, you might have a defective unit. If they just aren't cooked enough for your taste, try using more water.

I've had raw cashews from the farmers market and I just got cashews from Spicy World. They seem stale. I will be returning them right away. Must be just these cashews, the raw almonds I got from Spicy World were super fresh.
