  • Take it small and slow with the meat, Hurricane. Good luck!
  • Cookies make me feel guilty. Booze does not.

  • I thought Pacific salmon were caught in the ocean.

  • Wah. You brat, Mike. You could at least invite us over for fish fry... :wink:

  • If you don't live near the Pacific Northwest, it's probably freshest to buy the IQF Salmon over "fresh". I've been eating canned Pacific wild salmon from Wild Planet and I enjoy it when I'm not eating the frozen.

  • Ok. My husband scrambled one of the emu eggs today. It tasted fine, pretty much like chicken eggs. (I don't really like my husband's scrambled eggs, so I didn't LOVE it. Next one I'll cook.) 1 egg fed all 4 of us. I had read they equal 8-10 chicken eggs, so that's true. I would not buy them, they're really expensive.…

  • I just bumped an older thread about this for you girls to peruse.
  • Bump for newbies. 8-)
  • Missy, you can buy it without auto-ship. It's the same price ($79.00), but auto -ship saves you s&h.
  • AJ, not false, but if one is trying to lose weight, limiting fruit, especially higher sugar fruits, is advisable.
  • How frustrating. I just looked at their website very briefly because I hadn't heard of it. Their intro sounds pretty good, but this rubbed me the wrong way: "SUGAR BUSTERS!® Written by three renowned physicians and a CEO of a Fortune 500 company". $$Ch-ching$$. Everywhere there's a "®" after the name "Sugar Busters." A…
  • First of, congrats on graduating AND finding a job! You have to realize how awesome your life is and what a terrific person you must be to have gotten this far! I think sometimes we procrastinate because we think something is going to be much harder than it actually is. You have to eat regardless of your job or people in…
  • As a former sweet and creamy coffee lover, I've been playing with my morning coffee since going primal. Currently, I'm using my blender to whip my 12 oz of coffee with about 1/2 a cup of unsweetened almond milk. I think the foaminess cuts the "bitter" taste that used to be cut by sugar. Does that make sense? I don't do…
  • I think it sounds gross, even if I still ate peanut butter. I second Twinmom's opinion. Just say no!
  • I think it looks good too. The only suggestion I'd make is to swap your iceberg lettuce for more nutritious greens (green or red leaf lettuce, spinach, arugula are a few I like.) :smile:

  • Thanks all. I guess I was so surprised at the gaminess. I sort of expected a more sour-ish yogurty taste, even though I was told it tasted pretty much like cow's milk. Reading online, sometimes it can be gamey, sometimes not, depends on different variables. Kecarlto, I got that you were being funny. I'm not going to try to…

  • Sapalee, if you decide to make yogurt with goat milk, taste the milk first. If you don't like the taste, don't waste your time.

  • Just made the pudding. The scrapings from the pan were good, yet I could still taste that game factor. (I'm wondering if I'll ever get that taste out of my system!) :noway:

  • Ok. I found recipes for chocolate pudding and fudge. They're not paleo (sugar), but my kids can eat it. (I hope this won't be a waste of good chocolate!)

  • This. Hahaha!
  • You can't change your husband. Didn't you read that in the manual?? Hahaha! Seriously, do it for yourself. That's all you can do.
  • How does goat milk taste, Norm? I'm reminded of a funny when my son was learning to read. We were at the store, and "Schepp's" brand milk was on sale, so I stocked up. His eyes got big and he asked me, "Mama, is that really SHEEP'S milk??"

  • Now I'm re-thinking my almond milk usage...hahaha! Thanks for the insight, Monkeydharma!
    in Alomnd Milk Comment by MrsAbles May 2012
  • I switch back and forth between Silk Unsweetened almond milk (35 cals./8 oz.) and Almond Breeze Unsweetened almond milk (40 cals./8 oz.) depending on price. It took a little bit to acquire the taste, but I like it. They have versions that have vanilla flavoring and sweetening and they taste yummy, but I don't want the…

  • Scampering squirrel Crosses our path. Baby says: "Lookit! Kangaroo!"
  • You know how I gave up sugar in my coffee? I pour my coffee in the blender, pour in some half & half or almond milk and blend til frothy. I always liked it sweet and creamy before, but turns out I can settle for creamy if it's frothy too. Open your diary!
  • That's a great pep talk, Soccermom. Listen to your own advice. ((hugs))
  • You might want to look at another thread "Paleo and Pocketbook" (I just bumped it to the top). There were some very helpful posts there.
