I am starting a Paleo-friendly snack company and I think I know what ingredients are healthy and important to Paleo fans like you -- BUT I need YOUR feedback to be sure I'm headed in the right direction!! Please take my survey to support a Paleo entrepreneur trying to make it easier to buy truly nutritious and delicious products.
I really appreciate any support. Thank you.

Peanut butter is not paleo. You could use almond butter instead.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the input. It is a good point that peanuts are technically legumes, which are not generally included on a Paleo diet. So anyone who wants to avoid legumes completely should avoid peanut butter. Personally, I find it to be an interesting debate as to why legumes are excluded from the Paleo diet, but nuts are included.
ReplyDeleteHere is an interesting article discussing the reason legumes are excluded from a Paleo diet typically, but warns that nuts may be just as bad in large quantities.
