Your gravitar is definitely numero uno by the way.

I like SOG’s closing comment on protein shakes, they are not needed with a primal diet the only thing primal/paleo eaters could do with some help from is fish oil and vitamin D (if you don’t get out in the sun enough….)

& Sounds Delicious Chris. Thanks for the link

The SoG should have a Tropical Groktail contest – See what people can whip up.

It’s painfully easy.

Coconut milk + rum + ice + pineapple blender.
Vary amounts of each according to taste.

Here’s a link to a more through explanation on her site:

Before I gave up sugar and grains I thought it would be impossible too. Although I still have them on rare occasion, it’s really not that hard once you get through the initial phase and the benefits are well worth it!

It seems to me like a contradiction to be “paleo” without saturated fat. I have good reason to believe that paleolithic man was not affected by the modern myths of cholesterol causing heart disease. In fact, I think Loren Cordain has even come around a bit in regard to what he writes about saturated fat and heart disease.

Protein powder doesn’t have as much potential to cause trouble as sugar and refined carbs, unless maybe if it’s soy protein, but anyone who is serious about their nutrition and health should certainly prioritize whole food sources of protein.
