I can't believe I just found you! Would be awesome to meet you when I come to the west coast. I LOVE Portland and would really like to visit again. It was so beautiful and green. Have fun! 😁 😁 😁
Same! I watch several vegan channels and I am currently a pescatarian but hopefully I will soon be fully vegetarian since I notice that most of my meals are vegetarian xp
Honey! You are my spirit animal. I found you at 3 am. when I could not sleep and this definitely was forced from above haha... You are killing it! Such a natural beauty, inside and out. A huge inspiration and a joy to watch your videos. Thanks for sharing your awesomeness with the world, because it brings so much light and love out there! Keep on doing this!!! Love xxx
That fruit platter looked soooo good!! I'm jealous of your free mangos haha. But I agree with you on the rawtil4 type thing-sometimes you've just gotta listen to your bod and eat what you feel like =)
just subscribed a few days ago, you're by far my favorite vegan youtuber ive came across! youre always super positive about everything, you make being a vegan a little more fun, and youre so inspiring! keep doing what youre doin girl!
Instead of throwing away the fruit skins you could mix them with organic soil and feed it to your plants =) You can tell she is very intelligent just by the way she speaks openly. She isn't trying to push a diet on anyone, but instead she subtly states rationality. New sub here =)
You study so often! How do you find the motivation? Have you considered making a video about your study routine, or tips and tricks that you've found helpful? :) I really enjoy watching your videos.
I think it's easier to study more often. Idk, but for me, it's so much easier to study a little bit at a time, but more often! To be honest, you lose me after an hour of sciences so...
Adding any form of activity greatly boosts the effects of studying as well. This can be anywhere as simple as doing leg exercises while lying on your side, pacing a couple steps in your room while reading, or taking your study on a trail walk. Something about movement helps info land much harder.
Hey Caitlin! As an incoming grad student and recent vegan, your videos are so inspiring for me to watch! It's great seeing that it is possible to balance school with cooking healthy vegan meals for yourself. You're awesome!
So glad you brought up about how hard it is to not want cooked food when it's cold! I'm from Scotland, raw till 4 was just not happening for me! But I do still manage to eat nicecream for breakfast in winter, i just love it!! But I need cooked food for lunch :)
I feel like eating raw vegan makes the diet too inaccessible, especially when raw vegans are advertising that the ONLY way to be vegan is to eat uncooked food.
Thank you so much for your videos. My kids are coming home from college in a week and they are coming to a new vegan home. I'm hoping they will watch your videos and get some inspiration. Thanks again!
that INTRO 💦 and platter 😩 hook me up with your dealer ok? ok. GIRL let's meet up in Oregon please 💖 I would love love love to meet you. please teach me how to make such pretty smoothies mine look so ugli :') everytime. I could not agree MORE with you about the entire rt4 thing, all the matters is that we are vegan. "interact with other beings in society" omG ahahahha literally me. also your voice is so soothing like ??? how.
I’m not sure if this is really going to mean too much but I am so incredibly proud of you and your growth because you work so hard for your videos and I have been watching your videos for at least 2.5 years and now I’ve been vegan for 1.5 years because that so I’m super thankful!!
i can't believe i just found you! i was vegan for about 3 mouths and wanted to go back for a while but just haven't made the change. but after watching your videos and recipes I'm totally going back. all the things you make look so good!!!!
I live in Portland! I am a new vegan (only about 2 months in) and I am feeling amazing. I just found your channel today! I love you so far. You're so down to earth and real! I'll be watching. :D
Hi! Im new to your channel and am enjoying them so much! Your voice and tone are so relaxing/calming and I have to say I LOVE your enthusiasm for life and your day to day to dos! Keep it up girl!
such a beautiful soul Caitlin! you put so much love into your meals, it is so inspirational for me to get more creative with my cooking as a vegan. keep up the amazing videos, love your work x
i just found your videos while taking a break from studying organic chem (boooo) but i really love your personality and you have gained a new subscriber! i like seeing how you balance your vegan and active lifestyle while in school because i need to find motivation to do just that.
If you ever have the chance definitely come visit Boise, Idaho! We have big, beautiful foothills and rivers that you can hike, raft, and camp in. I love love love it here!
Hi Caitlin! You're so adorable and have a lovely personality! I totally agree about not judging others based on their level of veganism. As long as we all are striving to eat and live healthy there should be no judgement. For those who choose a less than healthy lifestyle, all we can do is try to inspire but ultimately the choice is up to them to change.:-)
law student here and I totally agree with you on the raw til 4 diet. it's amzing, mabgo island mama and her family live with this diet beautifully, but it just not really fit students with our crazy schedules, part time jobs, late night studies, small budget and all !!! alsotm you're super sweeeet
I've been obsessed w dumplings lately and got tired of the prices and started making them myself. They're actually super easy to make and turn out even better than frozen or resturaunt ones! I do the steamed method and it's so easy!
I just found your channel and I really like it. You seem so nice and sweet :) Just realized that I am kind of accidently RT4; in the morning I like having cereals with rice milk, during the day at work I only eat fruits and when I get home I am always excited about cooking. My fave meal is wholewheat pasta with tomatosauce and different vegetables.
Where did you get your metal straws?? I've seen them so many times and have been dying to get some! Also I'm almost a month vegan and don't plan on ever stopping! I love it so much!
I don't know where she got her metal straws specifically but here's some from west elm. They are $3 a piece. www.westelm.com/m/products/3107224/?catalogId=71&sku=3107224&bnrid=3902401&cm_ven=Google_PLA&cm_cat=Shopping&cm_pla=Bar_Tools_Mixers&cm_ite=AllProducts&kwid=productads-adid%5E56390694233-device%5Em-plaid%5E75783049785-sku%5E3107224-adType%5EPLA&gclid=CIrg7NCsmM4CFQasaQodHYsM4Q
I just started watching your videos and I love them so much!! You seem like such a genuine person and your recipes/ food looks so amazing! I am also a food blogger and UA-camr, little new to the business, and your photos/ work/ food/ videos/ everything is just so inspiring! Can you do a video just on how you style/ shoot your food along with the props you use and how you get them? I'm not vegan/ vegetarian but I love eating like that sometimes- I'm excited to try out some of your breakfast/ dessert ideas :) looking forward to more of your great videos!!
Jummmmy that green parfe or smoothie whit passion fruit mango green powder looks so good caitlin. I am so jelly right now hahaha. I am gonna try to make that. Love you,re video,s
I get medjool dates from BJs in a two pound box that they have next to the bananas at my store and I think they're tastier and not as dried out as the ones in the bags so it might be worth checking and seeing if they carry the boxes at your store next time :)
Yes, I am so agreeing with you. Honestly, I think I've only been rawtill4 one day throughout my 4 months vegan journey haha. Whatever happens happens right, just eat what you crave :)
YAYY! Those yellow berries you mentioned are goldeberries, originally called "aguaymanto" and come from Peru :) (Which made me fangirl cause thats where I'm from) loveeee your videos!
the thing I don't like about raw apart from it not being sustainable for most people, is that you can fall into a trap of eating way too much fat. all those seed breads and fatty salad dressings add up, and it can become unhealthy, especially when you try to make raw versions of cooked foods. plus, it's expensive and inconvenient. but I do like to have smoothies for breakfast, so maybe raw till 12? 😀
Here in Colombia those golden berries are called "uchuva" and they are delicious, here you see them literally EVERYWHERE and the sapote, I don't really like it, did you buy it already cut out? Because here you get the whole fruit and well when you open it from like scratch (I guess) it's very likely to get worms on the inside of it, to find one of those without a worm is very difficult. And the Maracuyá you used (passion fruit) looks delicious, so juicy and perfect. By the way, why does your phone have the weather settings in Spanish? I know people speak a lot of Spanish in Miami but, do you speak it? Cause trust me, that would be AWESOME :) Xoxo
I speak Spanish, I studied it in college. Having my phone in spanish is for good practice! :) And oh really? I have never had that problem and I absolutely LOVE Mamey! I bough the whole fruit and sliced it :)
Only been subbed for a few days and watched probably like 6-10 videos of yours. Something I noticed is your long hair (older) videos show more of your personality and a little less structured which is kind of nice. All of your videos are very helpful though and I've enjoyed them.
I feel I should go raw til 4 simply for my digestion, but I don't think I can afford it. Would love to find a way to do it on a very strict budget and no farmers markets. I shop at walmart and Aldi is not that far, though it is out of the way.
I can't believe I just found you! Would be awesome to meet you when I come to the west coast. I LOVE Portland and would really like to visit again. It was so beautiful and green. Have fun! 😁 😁 😁
Ah oh my gosh heyyyy! If you are in the area the same time as me I would LOVE to! If not the next time you are near Miami we should try to meet up 😘
trash
im not actually vegan but i watch your channel religiously and im considering going atleast vegetarian to start
_cinay_ me asf 💀💀
Same! I watch several vegan channels and I am currently a pescatarian but hopefully I will soon be fully vegetarian since I notice that most of my meals are vegetarian xp
+Leslie Mendoza congrats 👏✨
It took me a month of being vegetarian to go vegan. Not everyone goes vegan overnight and that's okay as long as you try 💗💗
Same!! I want to go vegan some time in the future
you're so brave for eating cherries on that white comforter. so brave!
how did you manage to eat cherries while wearing a white top, sitting on a white bedspread???
Honey! You are my spirit animal. I found you at 3 am. when I could not sleep and this definitely was forced from above haha...
You are killing it! Such a natural beauty, inside and out. A huge inspiration and a joy to watch your videos. Thanks for sharing your awesomeness with the world, because it brings so much light and love out there! Keep on doing this!!! Love xxx

I'd love a study routine video! 😊

Hey try study channels! Those motivate me.
Hey Caitlin! As an incoming grad student and recent vegan, your videos are so inspiring for me to watch! It's great seeing that it is possible to balance school with cooking healthy vegan meals for yourself. You're awesome!

That mango zucchini bread looked amazing! That's one food I haven't had a chance to veganize yet. Thanks for linking the recipe!
I feel like eating raw vegan makes the diet too inaccessible, especially when raw vegans are advertising that the ONLY way to be vegan is to eat uncooked food.
Lydia Balogh plus so much fruit they eat is NOT healthy
Moonstone_q that’s not what she’s saying, she’s saying that raw vegans promote a lifestyle that isn’t true for all vegans :)
Bianca Di Angelo, I feel very naïve. I will delete my comments now.
I agree!! it makes people think all vegans are gluten free, paleo, organic, non gmo, raw etc and it pushes people away from veganism 😫
Thank you so much for your videos. My kids are coming home from college in a week and they are coming to a new vegan home. I'm hoping they will watch your videos and get some inspiration. Thanks again!
Awww that's so awesome! Thank you :) I'm sure they'll love it 😉

I think I am basically I love with you....😍💖 hehe. but if you decide to come to Portland you better hit me up!!!! Love you so so much Claire!

I just went to Portland it is AMAZING!!!!!! You will love it!
You are sooo amazing, Caitlin! Absolutely love both your food and your behavior!
thanks babe, love you
your skin is flawless! I can't see a single pore!
Your phone is in Spanish! Do you speak Spanish? You're awesome by the way!
I live in Portland! I am a new vegan (only about 2 months in) and I am feeling amazing. I just found your channel today! I love you so far. You're so down to earth and real! I'll be watching. :D
Omg that Mamey!! 😍
Mamey is SO GOOOD I can't get over it 👌🏼
Hi! Im new to your channel and am enjoying them so much! Your voice and tone are so relaxing/calming and I have to say I LOVE your enthusiasm for life and your day to day to dos! Keep it up girl!
how much do you spend in food? just curious :)
such a beautiful soul Caitlin! you put so much love into your meals, it is so inspirational for me to get more creative with my cooking as a vegan. keep up the amazing videos, love your work x
thank you Ali :)
I just found your channel, but you seem like such a sweetheart. Keep making amazing videos, and being so awesome!
i just found your videos while taking a break from studying organic chem (boooo) but i really love your personality and you have gained a new subscriber! i like seeing how you balance your vegan and active lifestyle while in school because i need to find motivation to do just that.
If you ever have the chance definitely come visit Boise, Idaho! We have big, beautiful foothills and rivers that you can hike, raft, and camp in. I love love love it here!
This 16 minute vlog made me happy!
Aw thank you! I was worried it was a little long 🙈
omg putting the way description on your bike is such a good idea! I have a really bad orientation so I will try it;)
OMG I've been to the Beehive juice bar and I love it, you should def try to go again when they're open!
Those small orange fruits are called physalis. Never heard anyone call them umamifruits before, but they kind of have a umami taste to them. ☺️
Oh neat! They were just called umami berries in the package I got of them 😂
We call them "husk cherries" here in New England. I think it just depends on the region. Husk cherry pie with ginger is a summer treat for me. Yum!
+JustBringMeCoffee woah that sounds delicious!
I'm listening to this doing my homework and I've got to say It has helped me
Really liked the video! And I worked as an Au Pair in Pittsburgh, PA, and yes it does get really cold there 🙈
Hi Caitlin! You're so adorable and have a lovely personality! I totally agree about not judging others based on their level of veganism.

Wait you take like a shot of molasses every morning, why?
It's good for your iron.
What is molasses .
Alex Field it's a type of syrup
blackstrap molasses is really high in iron. I believe she takes it instead of an iron supplement
Wow you and your videos are amazing and you definitely deserve way more subs!
I live in Washington and grew up in Portland! They're both beautiful places and very eco friendly so a lot of vegan options!
Love your work girl, keep it up! 💪
I've been obsessed w dumplings lately and got tired of the prices and started making them myself. They're actually super easy to make and turn out even better than frozen or resturaunt ones! I do the steamed method and it's so easy!
that sounds amazing!
All your food looks amazing girl 😍🙈 loving your vids x
Ahhh yes I do that with my blackstrap molasses too!! I hate the taste though ahaha
I have a PKU vegan diet and I love your recipes they help me find tastier foods
I live an hour south of Seattle. The PNW is beautiful, you will love it and August is always the best weather and best time to visit (:
The only reason I watch these videos is because the food so delicious!
Wish I would've been subscribed sooner so I could've met you! I live in seaside 2ish hours away from Portland!
I just found your channel and I really like it. You seem so nice and sweet :)
Just realized that I am kind of accidently RT4; in the morning I like having cereals with rice milk, during the day at work I only eat fruits and when I get home I am always excited about cooking. My fave meal is wholewheat pasta with tomatosauce and different vegetables.
I completely agree with your thoughts on cooked foods!!!
YOU'RE SMOOTHIE!!!!! MIAMMM
I live in Portland ❤️❤️❤️ you will love it here!
Make more of these videos!!!! I like how they are longer
Aw yay okay! 💖
Why do you take molasses? Thanks.
Kristen Sowah iron!
I hope you love it here in Seattle. You will fit in here perfectly! ☺️
I live pretty close to Seattle and hopefully I'll be able to see or meet you when you come!! (:
Yaaay! I would love to meet you ☺️
I kept wanting to wipe my face when you got smoothie on your chin lol.
Where did you get your metal straws?? I've seen them so many times and have been dying to get some! Also I'm almost a month vegan and don't plan on ever stopping! I love it so much!
Ebay! :D Hong Kong is ready for us! At least it was the last five minutes, when I ordered them haha
I don't know where she got her metal straws specifically but here's some from west elm. They are $3 a piece. www.westelm.com/m/products/3107224/?catalogId=71&sku=3107224&bnrid=3902401&cm_ven=Google_PLA&cm_cat=Shopping&cm_pla=Bar_Tools_Mixers&cm_ite=AllProducts&kwid=productads-adid%5E56390694233-device%5Em-plaid%5E75783049785-sku%5E3107224-adType%5EPLA&gclid=CIrg7NCsmM4CFQasaQodHYsM4Q
I've bought them off of amazon before.
Ahhhhh that fruit platter at the beginning of the video looks SO yummy!!! 😋😋😋

Great video!!!! You have a sweet personality!!! Love it!!!❤️❤️❤️🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾😍😍😍

Also on editing your photos/ thumbnails/ videos ☺️☺️
New favourite channel💜
The "Umami Berries" are called Uchuvas and are an endemic species from Colombia, particularly from the Andes as they only grow in colder weather.
I just found your videos and I love your videos! You are so funny and real
When you are in Portland try the Kure juice bar it's really good
I think it's really important to feed your body what you want. When I crave sweet things I reach for fruit now.
Jummmmy that green parfe or smoothie whit passion fruit mango green powder looks so good caitlin. I am so jelly right now hahaha. I am gonna try to make that. Love you,re video,s
I live in Western NY so I understand your pain. I think the availability of the tropical fruits in Miami would be wonderful though
It definitely is nice :)
I get medjool dates from BJs in a two pound box that they have next to the bananas at my store and I think they're tastier and not as dried out as the ones in the bags so it might be worth checking and seeing if they carry the boxes at your store next time :)
while you're in Seattle you should definitely eat at veggie grill! it's a completely vegan restaurant and everything is SO good
Yes, I am so agreeing with you. Honestly, I think I've only been rawtill4 one day throughout my 4 months vegan journey haha. Whatever happens happens right, just eat what you crave :)
Totally agree Michelle!
Love the things you eat!
YAYY! Those yellow berries you mentioned are goldeberries, originally called "aguaymanto" and come from Peru :) (Which made me fangirl cause thats where I'm from) loveeee your videos!
it's so cool that they have so many different names! thanks for the info :)
the thing I don't like about raw apart from it not being sustainable for most people, is that you can fall into a trap of eating way too much fat. all those seed breads and fatty salad dressings add up, and it can become unhealthy, especially when you try to make raw versions of cooked foods. plus, it's expensive and inconvenient. but I do like to have smoothies for breakfast, so maybe raw till 12? 😀
what is the molasses for ? like the benefits or the reason why you take it.
Its to help with iron levels :) xx
i actually hate all vlogs for some reason i think they are boring. im so happy i found your channel right now because i loveeeeee these.
cassandra diaz check david dobrik haha
Bjs sounds like Costco. I live in the Portland area! You will have fun when you visit!! Just subscribed😊
Thank you!! Yes they are the basically the same :) I am having a Portland meetup on 8/5, if you are in the area you should try to come!
so glad i found your channel ahhhhhh
the smoothie is soo good! i just tried it👍💪😍
omg these videos are really making me want to become a vegan!
Do it girl!!! 😘
What did you have in the jars behind you when when you where eating the mango zucchini bread? Love you ❤️xo
yo this smoothie talk is real talk
Here in Colombia those golden berries are called "uchuva" and they are delicious, here you see them literally EVERYWHERE and the sapote, I don't really like it, did you buy it already cut out?

Las uchuvas son lo mejor!
I speak Spanish, I studied it in college. Having my phone in spanish is for good practice! :) And oh really? I have never had that problem and I absolutely LOVE Mamey! I bough the whole fruit and sliced it :)
Do you have a recipe for the chocolate dish at the end?! Omg 😍
YOU WENT TO PORTLAND AND I MISSED YOU UGH NOO
Oh by the way, you will love the Pacific Northwest. We live in North Idaho. Beautiful!
HOW IS IT THAT YOU ARE SO CUTE AND PRETTY? You are by far my favorite youtuber💕
Aww shucks girl thank you!
By the way I love your videos. You are inspiring
I live in Seattle!!
you have such pretty hair!! how do you take care of it?
Also you went to school in Pittsburgh??? I used to live there! Wha school?
Only been subbed for a few days and watched probably like 6-10 videos of yours. Something I noticed is your long hair (older) videos show more of your personality and a little less structured which is kind of nice. All of your videos are very helpful though and I've enjoyed them.
I watched your travel vlogs and EW's and now I need to go there haha. ❤️
please try rawnola!!! it's my new obsession and it's just equal parts dates and oats :) you can add cinnamon, carob powder, and seeds of you wish
Ahhh I love rawnola! Haven't had it in forever though...thanks for reminding me girl! 😘
your gorgeous!
I have wanted to go vegan but I have one question. Do you eat any vitamins or take any specific pill ?
omg you went to school in pittsburgh ? that's awesome
hey Caitlin, i have 2 questions. 1. do you eat gluten and 2. where do you get your mason jars?
Haha yep all the time 😍 and I just bought them in bulk through Amazon
Where did you get that 2:00 straw from ? I always wanted it
I just searched for metal straws on Amazon a while ago and bought a 4 pack 😂 I can't remember the specific brand sorry!
I feel I should go raw til 4 simply for my digestion, but I don't think I can afford it. Would love to find a way to do it on a very strict budget and no farmers markets. I shop at walmart and Aldi is not that far, though it is out of the way.
