SOLVED: Guess posting this got me more curious and I figured it out:
If I ask for
my_file.xpath("//EMBEDDED_FILE/DOCUMENT").text
Nokogiri automatically takes the content within the cdata element within the
DOCUMENT node and returns it to me without the cdata. Nice. So just a case
of making things harder for myself.
