I have a humorous story about eating raw in public.  When I first went paleo I was still working.  For lunch I would often have a small salad with raw or very rare shredded meat in it.  One day one of the secrateries sat down at my table in the lunch room and when she saw what I was eating she said "Boy you sure like a lot of tomato in your salad!"  I just smiled and kept eating.

this story makes me smile..

i did see some raw ground up flax sprouts, I would suggest them over the seeds, I prefer to get my plant fats whole, fresh organic coconut is a favorite of mine, only 2$ a piece,  good deal!

Pictures I have taken of vegetation I have gathered in my area!

Pear



Black Walnut

Tart Cherry



White Mulberry

Make a journal section specifically for people to post pictures of fruits and or meats they have gathered or hunted themself.

Is their value to this? Next time I eat some eggs should I consume the shells too?

Bad Bad Bananas!


I've also heard that a lot of people have trouble digesting bananas, I know my brother can only eat green bananas.

I would never eat a green banana, oh well, I stopped eating bananas anyway, only eating hand picked vegetation and locally grown foods .

Happy birthday!!!

There are some items on sashimi plate that are not raw.  Octopus and crab are usually not raw.  If the octopus and crab looked like the ones in the picture below, they were not raw.  The crab meat in the picture is not even crab meat; it is fake crab meat (imitation crab meat, made of nasty stuff). Shrimp is not quite raw either. Squid is usually raw.

I hope all i ate was raw...oh well nothing i can do now

I had it today for my birthday. I had about 6 different types of raw sea food! Six! Quite a variety for one meal I know. But the raw octopus and crab was the BEST!!!! Excellent texture!!!

My dream is to make a fresh kill and eat the organs on the spot like our paleo ancestors. It is also one way to finally get a brain. 

That would be my dream too.

Yes, I thought you were eating both vegetables and meats at the same meal. However, since you eat these foods separately, you are unlikely to experience any side-effects of such regimen.
As regards habits of our anscestors your suggestion might be true.

yeah i'll just eat my fruits or roots first since they digest quicker, i ate my meat first before, but i got your link and read it, it makes since to eat the fruits and veggies first so they don't wait on the slower digesting meat and start to age in my belly, thanks for the link! 

I used to make hot cocoa with it, adding sugar and coconut oil.

It is supposed to be an excellent source of magnesium, needed by most.
