I Don't Get It, But Okay šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

People on a carnivore diet will eat eggs and certain dairy. I haven’t seen a lion eat eggs or milk a zebra.

Also, carnivores don’t cook their food.

If a person eats the whole animal raw, including all organs like the stomach and intestines, including their contents, he can honestly say he’s on a carnivore diet.

Very much the opposite, in my experience. Cutting all that out makes nutrition MUCH more sustainable.

I could absolutely eat gyros and baklava every day. No doubt.

I love any opportunity to shut down my brain and hit auto pilot. For me, its a much needed but often missed chance to quiet the cacophony.

I don’t know if you’re faliliar with that, but its very appealing to me. When my wife & son went camping earlier this summer I was prefectly happy eating either eggs or ground beef on rice, with a couple sauces to jazz it up a little.

I am completely familiar with that, haha. The first time I was without my wife for an extended period of time in my life, I made tacos 3 nights in a row, because it was all I knew how to make…and I loved every meal. I had the exact same lunch for all 4 years of high school: 2 PBJs, a protein bar, a tin of fruit and a bottle of water. I looked FORWARD to that lunch every day. The only thing better than a PBJ is the second PBJ you eat afterwards.

If left to my own devices, I’d just eat the same thing every day. Really, outside of dinners, that’s exactly what I do, but whenever it’s just me and the kiddo while the Valkryie is away, she’ll make a big casserole for the kiddo and I’ll make some big dish for myself and we’ll just both eat that until she gets back. One time, I just air fried a whole chicken and ate on that for a few days, other times it’s just a bunch of steaks or ground meat.

What’s the best way to store your meal prepped carnivore food?

Buried under leaves in the forest?

Stuffed under a submerged log in the river?

Hung high in a tree?

My long lost brother! :+1:

In a thread about not getting it, someone who gets it!

I can do some interesting things, and I do like good food. But left to my own, I really enjoy simplicity. Rice + protein, give or take on a few things to dress it up.

My one buddy asked how I could whip up a stir fry so quick and often. I told him my secret- meat+2 veggies, on rice. If it takes too long, you’re missing the point of stir fry.

On the plus side, if you started carrying that thing with you when it was just a calf, by the time it was fully grown, you’d be jacked!

…and THEN you eat it!

Big bottle for water, smaller bottle for workout drink, possibly the Pso-Rite or Mobo-Max, a hip thrust pad, bands and mini-bands, the hoodie that I just took off, wrist wrap, phone, elbow brace for occasions when the tennis elbow flares up… and I think that’s usually about it.

NOTE: It’s easier to use mobility tools in the gym when you have dogs at home who are going to lick-attack you every time you lay on the floor.

I channeled my primal ancestors and they suggested drying it over your shoulders as you traverse our native woodlands or smoking it in a hut lead to the greatest gains.

Meal prep for me has basically become keeping red meat and eggs on hand, plus butter, tallow and cheese along with some ancestral avocado oil and various tribal seasonings.

I saran wrap 1/4-1/3 lb of ground beef into balls that can become a smashburger on my carbon steel and/or cast iron skillet in about 10 minutes. Skipping lunch is not really a problem and if I need lunch I can usually find a solution, even if its a bit pricey. Eggs are just as fast and steak takes maybe 20 minutes.

Buying a half cow might make sense for me to take care of most shopping all in one go. I was recently quoted $6.50/lb hanging weight for grass-fed, grass-finished local beef cut and vacuum packaged to order, available in January if I put a deposit down now. Even if I halve my beef consumption I would still likely go through it in under a year.

Is ā€œancestralā€ avocado oil actually different from regular, or are you just being posh?

You can only be a true carnivore if you slaughter your animals Islamic style. It’s got to be halal bro.

Wouldn’t blowing it up make it a pain to portion though?
