I have been slowly changing over a raw animal diet. My diet has undergone a dramatic evolution in the last few months and I am cutting all the crap out. RZC seems to be the best choice for me. I am not interested in eating food for flavor. I am all about eating for fuel. I am a 34 year old male. I work at a grocery store and I have asked people in the meat department about the products I can eat there. Not much. I have tried some grass fed ground beef from the butcher case at Whole Foods. I consumed the entire pound a little at a time over a few days with no problem. I bought grass fed beef liver but I chickened out and cooked it before eating it. Can I just cut it up and eat it raw?

The point of my post is that people are freaking out!    There is something so ridiculously disturbing to people that I am eating raw meat. Everyone is telling me why I shouldn't eat raw meat and especially not ground beef. Bacteria, parasites, e coli, Ebola, etc.! I ate a raw NY strip steak(the best part was the solid fat around the outside of the steak) in front of my father and I thought he was going to disown me. He looked so disappointed in me like I was shaming the family. What gives?! I have worked around food my whole life and I don't think it such a cause for alarm. Do you eat normally in front of people? I am having trouble wrapping my head around how this lifestyle works. Also, could someone provide a sample shopping list for the RZC carnivore? I need to find local places to get these exotic items. Rabbit hearts? They don't have those at Publix.
