Sorry, I'm more Pragmatic than Paleolithic when it comes to food. I don't require the History of the food I eat to conform to the History of the foods my ancestors ate. Especially since the foods my ancestors ate probably adapted just as much as I did since then. I think it's impossible to find Ancestral Food so I'll have to do without and use what's available to me now.
Now that I think about it, my Ancestors didn't have Ancestral Food (from their point of view) either so they too had to do without and use what was available to them at the time. So perhaps I'm more Paleolithic than many here. At least in method.
One example: Wheat. If it had not survived us and other animals that could chew it, it would not have survived. Proof is in our inability to eat, chew and digest it without first using high tech machines to process it. Raw, it goes through our body unchanged and ends up surrounded by a pile of excrement. Incidentally, that's probably how wheat was able to survive us. By making sure it had enough to eat.
Anyway, I won't do it again. I promise.
