          Wow. Okra tastes better than I thought. I got one yesterday, washed it and ate it raw. It had no bad taste to it at all. Much better than some of the other stuff I force myself to eat like broccili (sp).

                      They really don't say anything about how it was cooked.  They mention "Southern Diet", which makes me think "Breaded and fried", which is exactly how I like my okra.  I'll have to try it raw, since I'm sure that frying negates some (most?) of the health benefits.  Les is the same way.
