My go to brand is Mac’s original. They have no seasonings other than a little salt and they are fried in their own lard. Any flavored ones are probably going to have sugar in them or something else that we don’t want and not all of them are fried in their own oils. Some are fried in seed oils so you’ve got to do your research. I don’t know about your area but we get our Mac’s at Wally World. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hang in there. The keto flu doesn’t last long. Once it’s over you’ll be feeling better and it’s easier to stick with this WOE. Yeah that’s just the carb addiction talking to you. Once you are free of that then those other things just don’t look like food anymore. I can see a table full of chips, pies, cakes and breads and they have no more appeal than a table full of manure. Give it time man, you’ve got some demons to fight but you seem determined to do this and your motivation is strong. You got this.

Only nasty in that they are seldom pure meat but filled with all kinds of things that we carnivores don’t want to eat. Sugar, grains, soy, fillers, seed oils but it’s still better than eating a bag of cookies in a pinch.

There is some truth to that. I have foraged for food just as the Indians, before the Europeans arrived, and as the mountain man did after that. Meat has always been the priority for man’s food. Plants were for seasoning or for times of lean when meat couldn’t be found. Fruits were seasonal and only available for a short time each year. I can see that for those just looking to just lose weight but for me and many others carnivore isn’t a fad at all. We came to this WOE out of desperation to fix ourselves and heal. I was laying on a gurney while a team of doctors and nurses were trying to get my heart back in rhythm when I knew that my life had to change because I was dying. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; (Proverbs 1:7, NASB) My motivation and commitment to this lifestyle is as strong as anyone’s, I can guarantee that. That’s why I’m so strict and never cheat. This isn’t a diet, it a lifestyle and yes, I do identify by what I do. I don’t eat carnivore, I am carnivore.

Sounds like you are playing food poisoning roulette. I take it you’ve never had good poisoning? If you ever get it you’ll go buy a small dormitory size fridge. It’s not the refrigeration that kills bacteria it can only prevent it from growing. It’s the cooking process that kills the bacteria. You might get away with that on steaks or roasts but don’t try it with ground meat. On steaks the bacteria is on the surface so it’s killed easily by the heat of cooking but with ground meat the bacteria can be mixed into the meat and requires that it be cooked to 160° or higher. Before refrigeration early man would eat as much of the kill as he could stuff in himself and then salt, smoke and dry the meat to prevent bacteria from forming as soon as possible. In later times man had learned many different ways of preserving meats with salting, drying, curing and making sausages. In the days of the industrial revolution they ate a lot of rancid meats and got sick a lot. Many developed a tolerance for the spoiled meats probably by evolving to have a stronger stomach acid. This is why ketchup and steak sauces were invented to cover up the taste of the rancid meats. As has already been said, you can leave them out for weeks if they have not been washed and that’s how they do it in Europe and other countries but here in America they are washed so the protective bloom has been removed and once that happens bacteria can penetrate the shell to contaminate the egg if it isn’t refrigerated. Likely true but if you ever get food poisoning you might wish you could die. I’ve had it twice and it’s extremely terrible. Haha, yeah…don’t bet on it because it can certainly happen. You do you man and if it’s working for ya then carry on but I believe you are playing a chancy game here.

That is a very good article. I generally eat once a day when I get hungry. It’s usually around noon give or take an hour. So my fasting lasts about 23 hours or if you factor in the digestive time 22 hours. There’s some information in there that could be interesting to Scott with his shift schedule.

So LED’s produce Blue light? I did not know that. That’s what we have in our house. All the more reason to consider filtering glasses. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Chicken salad and pork rinds. Then I ate a couple of fried eggs and a half pound of smoked venison burger with two tablespoons of butter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Seltzer water or carbonated water is fine on carnivore but “natural flavors” are not. The reason being is that there is no regulation on what “natural flavors” can consist of and the ingredients don’t have to be listed so they can be just about anything. Often those “natural flavors” are sugar. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good job man. I aways keep some meats cooked up and in the fridge that I can grab for a quick fix if I need to. My favorite is to keep a pound of bacon cooked up. It’s handy to have in a pinch. Hard boiled eggs are good to have on hand. Hamburger patties cold with a smear of butter on it works good too. Some people find that a pinch of salt under the tongue works for them or eating a little cold butter. Keep up the good work. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I agree with the blue light theory. I’ve considered getting the blue light blocking glasses. I have a setting on my phone that I can set to turn down the blue light every day at 7:00 pm and not turn back on for 12 hours. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah I can only get mine down to 100. It’s hotter than I’d like and it dries quicker but it still came out good. Ain’t it the truth. 😆

I don’t think a dehydrator would stink the place up but if you did it in the oven it might.

It is much easier and cheaper than the store bought stuff and you can control what’s in it. I won’t eat store bought jerky because most of it has sugar in it and soy sauce. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok, so pay attention to what Max was saying. Key words “in the beginning”, “given time it will go away”, let it solidify” and “fully fat adapted”. What he is talking about is something almost all of us go through. When we try to switch our gut biome over to digesting fat instead of carbs our bodies take time to adjust and it can cause diarrhea. As he said it can last two weeks in some people and others longer. It lasted 30 days for me. He’s not saying that you need to drain off all of the fat that your meat is cooked in and he never mentioned steaks in that reference. He’s just saying be careful of how much liquid fat you ingest IN THE BEGINNING. If you want to have some of the rendered fat then let it solidify first. It has nothing to do with letting your meat cool off before eating it. Butter in its liquid state can, like any liquid fat fun through you faster and thereby produce loose stools but once again, this only apply in the very beginning of carnivore. But with all of it he’s just talking about eating the liquid fats in large quantities. Solidified fats are just easier on our system than liquid fats IN THE BEGINNING of the diet because in a liquid state they tend to run through you faster. And this isn’t the same for everyone. For some it never bothers them. As he also said, once you are fat adapted then it’s no longer an issue. Now I didn’t know anything about liquid fat vs solid fat when I first started and I just poured the rendered fats over my meats like a sauce and maybe that’s why I had diarrhea for 30 days but it was no big deal because when I became fat adapted then it all went away. Now I can eat my fat in any condition it’s in and I have no issues whatsoever. Now even if you're fat adapted you can get loose stools by eating too much fat in either form depending on your system. If you were to drink a cup of rendered tallow like a cup of coffee you’d probably regret it. 😆 As you progress in carnivore you will learn when you are eating too much fat by paying attention to your body. If your stools are packed and gravel then you aren’t eating enough fat but if you are loose then you’re eating too much. I would also like to add that the whole point of #10 was to help new comers not to become discouraged and quit if they do experience some diarrhea and just show them a way to help avoid it in the beginning.

The best laid plans of mice and men oft go astray.

I’m from San Antonio and grew up all through the hill country. I forgot to mention my venison sausage when I responded to @Outdoorstom . I’ve got the traditional summer sausage along with German sausage, hot links, breakfast sausage and Italian sausage. I make some of it myself but have my processor make most of it. I just don’t have the equipment and facilities to have a big sausage fest like that though. I’m a little envious.

I have to agree with Scott, evaluate your diet. Are you eating enough salt and are you using any electrolyte supplements? Those are generally the culprits. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
