From the Internet: The Paleo Diet is an effort to eat like we used to back in the day…WAY back in the day. If a caveman couldn't eat it, neither can you. This means anything we could hunt or find – meats, fish, nuts, leafy greens, regional veggies, and seeds.
===========================================
Since I love popcorn,with butter and salt, I don't think I'd make a good "paleo" eater.
However, PALEO includes honey so that would be OKAY with me.
Also, I had oyster stew for dinner. Yummy. A paleo-eater wouldn't have had that either. Nope, I am NON-paleo.
Besides, most of the paleo-people didn't live much past their teens and twenties. Life was rough and tough back then. OLD was 40. Now 40 is merely approaching middle age.
Dull works for me too!
Every day I walk out where the hang gliders fly [They run and JUMP off a hundred foot cliff--Yikes!] and folks take their dogs for a nice long walk. It's out at the Pacific coast. Doggies and the ocean, two of God's greatest creations!
I love it.
I eat popcorn onw and then, but really don’t like salt, either-it wasn’t on the table when I grew up, and it isn’t now.
I live in the Texas hill country-I was born and raised in southwest Texas, but both are ranch country, and people live the same way. I eat like we did on the ranch-lots of fresh meat and veggies, and fresh fruit in season-sweets were made with honey and raw brown sugar, and we ate real yummy butter and homemade yogurt. Living into the 90’s is common in my family, as long as you keep working. The paleo diet works for me-my job involves physical work, so protein is a necessity-I’m 5’9” and 110 lbs, same as I was at 17...
I barter my homegrown herbs and veggies for butter and eggs from a neighbor here, and goat cheese-but no yogurt-I have to buy that...
