The latest dietary trend is using paleo recipes. It’s not exactly “new,” but with even a trendy European restaurant claiming to be “paleo,” it’s gaining steam. What is it really? In theory, it is a diet that mimics what our paleolithic ancestors might have eaten, which consisted of nuts, fruit, fish and raised livestock. It is virtually free of grains, like a low carb diet, but also doesn’t use seasonings, uses virtual no seasonings.
The diet has similar effect as a low carb diet, but how does one navigate the cultural landscape of charity spaghetti dinners and birthday cake? If you are on the paleo diet, maybe you can provide me with an answer of how you did it politely? Candles on a Birthday Steak?
