Have to laugh every time I see the term paleo diet. Some of us are put off by the complete silliness of the premise. You can't really experience the diet of the paleolithic age until you have chased your bacon burger for 8 hours without success, and finally have to go to bed (probably in a pile of damp leaves), exhausted, cold and hungry. If you think of the paleo diet in realistic terms it's not all that attractive. I suspect the caveman lifestyle was somewhat less glamorous than what is depicted in the movies.
