How did we remember anything pre-smartphones!?
Info as promised at the Paleo Challenge Meeting. Thanks to all who attended, you had great questions and are sure to do awesome! (Same goes for those who were not able to make it!)
Remember that important dates and all Challenge info can be found here: bookmark it!
If what you are eating did not get dug out of the ground, picked off a tree, or have a face prior to arriving at the market, READ THE LABEL. Do NOT be fooled by phrases like ‘all natural’, ‘heart healthy’, ‘gluten free’, etc, etc. (Big thanks to Lesley!)
