MIMI KIRK, I LIVE IN SAN DIEGO CALIFORNIA

Are you Vegetarian? Vegan? Raw? Dairy? Sugar? Gluten? Please tell us about how you eat/nourish yourself.

I'M A RAW VEGAN, SO OF COURSE NO DAIRY, GLUTEN OR SUGAR, EXCEPT AGAVE OR STEVIA.

I EAT LIVING FOOD. GREEN DRINKS, SALADS AND I USE A DEHYDRATOR TO MAKE SOME SPECIAL THINGS LIKE FLAX CRACKERS, BREADS AND MAIN COURSES.

Do you have any favorite superfoods?  Please elaborate if you feel inspired to.

I LIKE GOJI BERIES, MACA, AND CHOCOLATE

Have you found your Dharma (life's purpose, dream) yet?  If so... what is it? tell us about it!  If not yet, what are you doing in the mean time?

I HAVE FOUND MY DHARMA MANY TIMES OVER. THROUGHOUT MY LIFE, IT'S ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT HELPING OTHERS IN SOME WAY OR ANOTHER, EVEN IN MY BUSINESSES AND PLACES I'VE WORKED, I'VE ALWAYS FOUND WAY'S TO HELP PEOPLE. I'VE CONSIDERED IT A GREAT GIFT AND I'M VERY PROUD OF MY PAST SUCCESSES. CURRENTLY IN MY 71st YEAR OF LIFE I WAS VOTED THE SEXIEST VEGETARIAN OVER 50 BY PETA (PEOPLE FOR THE ETHICAL TREATMENT OF ANIMALS). IT HAS MADE MY LIVE QUITE BUSY ANSWERING QUESTIONS ON MY FACEBOOK PAGE AND ACCEPTING NEW FRIENDS FROM AROUND THE WORLD. I AM ALSO WORKING ON A BOOK TO LET PEOPLE WHAT I DO TO STAY HEALTHY AND VITAL. IT WILL CONTAIN HEALTH INFORMATION AND LOTS OF RECIPES TO HELP PEOPLE SEE THAT YOU CAN EAT DELICIOUS FOOD ON A RAW PLANT-BASED DIET.

Please tell us about your relationship with Gnosis Chocolate.  Favorite flavor?, what do you like about us?, why? who? etc.

I'VE TRIED ALL THE RAW CHOCOLATES FROM EVERY COMPANY IN THE LAST 2 YEARS. WHEN I TASTED GNOSIS, THAT WAS IT, FINALLY, GREAT CHOCOLATE THAT DID NOT MAKE ME FEEL I WAS COMPROMISING OR SETTLING FOR SOMETHING LESS THEN MY FAVORITE WHEN I WASN'T RAW. I'VE ALWAYS CONSIDERED MYSELF A CHOCOLATE CONNOISSEUR AS I’VE EATEN CHOCOLATE FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD AND PLACES THAT ARE KNOW FOR THEIR GREAT CHOCOLATE. I’LL CHOOSE GNOSIS ANY TIME AND NOT ONLY BECAUSE IT’S THE HEALTHIEST CHOCOLATE AROUND, BUT FOR ITS AMAZINGLY SATISFYING TASTE. I AM ALSO IMPRESSED WITH THE COMPANIES POLICIES AND WITH VANESSA THE OWNER. SHE IS DEDICATED TO MAKING THE BEST CHOCOLATE WITH ENOUGH VARIETY TO SATISFY ANY TASTE. I THINK EVERYBODY LIKES DIFFERENT THINGS IN THEIR CHOCOLATE. I THINK I’VE TRIED MOST OF WHAT GNOSIS HAS TO OFFER AND RECENTLY HAD THEIR LEMON, BERRY, ROSE BAR AND I THINK THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE. IT HAS EVERYTHING I LOVE IN CHOCOLATE PLUS ALL THIS SUPERFOOD. I AM CONFESSING TO THIS, I USUALLY HAVE A SQUARE OR 2 OF GNOSIS AND FEEL VERY SATISFIED, BUT WHEN I HAD THE LEMON, BERRY, ROSE BAR, I ATE THE WHOLE THING. OK, ITS OUT!

What does Gnosis mean to you?

I NEED CHOCOLATE, ITS LIKE A TREAT THAT HELPS ME KEEP ON MY RAW DIET. I DON’T FEEL I’M MISSING ANYTHING IN MY DIET WHEN HAVING THIS GREAT CHOCOLATE.

What positive message or bit of knowledge would you love to impart to others viewing these answers?

I THINK THE RAW FOOD DIET HAS CHANGED MY HEALTH FOR THE BETTER AND I’M SURE ITS INCREASING MY LIFESPAN. I RECOMMEND FOR ANYONE WHO IS LOOKING FOR BETTER HEALTH TO TRY IT.
