nounrawist (plural rawists)
plural rawists
- A follower of rawism; a person who eats only uncooked and unprocessed foods.
If you want to consider yourself a full-fledged rawist, you'd have to consume about 75 percent (by weight) of your daily fare uncooked. That means that a person who consumes 1,800 calories in a day would have to eat about six pounds of raw foods.
