Mushrooms. Mushrooms can be eaten raw, but you’ll receive more of the veggie’s benefits if you take the time to sauté, roast, or even grill them.

Tomatoes. Obviously we eat raw tomatoes in salads, sandwiches, and salsa, but your body can absorb more of the cancer-fighting ingredient lycopene from cooked tomatoes. Try some grilled tomatoes in a sandwich!

Potatoes. For some reason, I get asked a lot on social media, “Why can’t I eat raw potatoes?” Um, well, they’re toxic uncooked. That’s why! Not only do raw potatoes contain toxins that can harm your body, but their uncooked starchiness can also cause digestive discomfort. (This applies to all non–sweet potatoes, including russet, waxy white, red, fingerling, and purple potatoes, which should not be confused with purple sweet potatoes.)
