fridge and stove are to deal with toxic bacteria from animal products

if your a vegan you dont need those two appliances

so you can sell them and use the money to buy more vegetables

and laugh at the carnivores wasting so much time cooking and refrigerating their toxic bacteria

Actually, about ten-fifteen years ago we had an extended power outage when the remnants of a hurricane blew over a bunch of trees. At the time, the wife and I were raw food vegetarians. We didn't miss electricity at all. Now, we freak out if power goes out for an hour....no Internet.

cooking reduces nutrients, kills them

It depends on the food and how it's cooked. For instance, steaming and grilling is more nutritious than boiling and frying. And tomatoes, beans, potatoes, spinach, carrots and mushrooms are more nutritious when cooked than raw, And too, some vegetables that are high in fiber such as kidney beans and potatoes are bad for the digestion unless cooked.

When did you stop caring about nutrients....five minutes ago?
 
I don't really like most vegetables cooked, but what else can you do with corn or potatoes?
 
I think this vegan thread proves in some cases, "You are what you eat". If you live on a diet of "fresh" vegetables without refrigeration and cooking to make them safe to eat, then get ready for repeated bouts of serious staphylococcal food-poisoning infections and eventual death. But hey, then you'll be refrigerated for awhile until they burn your mortal remains and bury the ashes. So refrigeration and stoves are likely unavoidable for us all at some point, I fear.

Cheers and graze on.

My body requires protein to function properly and to get the required nutrients from plant sources would cause far more damage to the environment than my current diet.
