Cool guys thanks for the tips.

Just finished a good climbing session after fasting for the day and I decided to try out some raw eggs and oysters. I found the eggs to taste like nothing, went down like water. The oysters were very salty and had crunchy parts to them. Might try out some raw goat in the days to come, it did come frozen though.

Does anybody eat raw meat that comes from the grocery stores? Just wondering as I'm kind of short on cash, so I figured since I've already been eating it cooked if eating it raw would make that much of a difference.

Also should I start storing meat/fish in the fridge exposed to the air rather than in containers?

Hello everyone my name is Alex and I am/have been experimenting with many various diets through the past few years searching for something that I can settle on. I am currently avoiding (or rather trying to avoid) all grains, dairy and legumes. I eat a cooked fish heavy diet with lots of fruits and vegetables. I occasionally eat red meat and organ meats.

I have heard of eating raw meat in the past but couldn't find anything comprehensive enough to try it. I have this belief that the meat (land or sea) has to be extremely fresh to be eaten raw or it will cause severe digestion problems (lots of pain). I have had an experience along these lines a few years ago where I dried raw fish and tried to eat it. I was keeled over once it started digestion and I spend the day in the fetal position drinking lemon juice until I got it out of me. I enjoy eating sashimi and dishes like steak tartar but that experience has made me hesitant on pursuing a raw meat diet.

My main question at the moment is how old/fresh does meat/fish have to be in order to eat it raw? Is it pretty much like if I could cook it and eat it can I eat it raw instead? When buying meat is there something I have to check for (colour, smell) or can I just go to the market get a cut of meat and simply eat it as is? What about frozen meat can I thaw it and eat it? And what happens when meat that has gone bad is ingested? I understand that there I a degree of risk in pursuing such a diet and place myself as responsible for what I eat.
