What can you do with all the vege and fruit pulp that gets "pooped" out of your juicer when extracting the juice?
Compost it? Yes.
Give it to your animals? Possibly, but check with your holistic vet...
Here's a great idea: toss a whole bag in with your nuts or seeds when making a pate or nut cheese. It's a fabulous way to get tons of organic fiber and add a deliciousness to the mix.
Mine tasted exactly like tuna salad used to taste; but no animals were harmed.
I brought a container to the office as a gift for my partner in eating disorder therapy, and she just loved loved loved it! And, she is not a raw foodie...though becoming more and more vegan of late. Joanna said it tasted like a cross between tuna and the traditional Jewish Passover ritual dish of Charoset (it must have been the beet color).
If you have a dehydrator, when making nut or raw vege burgers, add it to the recipe for robust patties. And include it in a batch of flax crackers; it will up the whole experience, making them really vibrant and giving you tons of energy.
Please write in with any other suggestions you have for juice "poop"!!
