Paleo meals...

...not in Chiang Mai actually, but we're in the States for a few weeks and I'm reminded about how much easier it is to eat out and keep to a paleo diet in Thailand.

In Thailand, you've always got options that are grilled, use no wheat, little if any sugar, and are always made with fresh ingredients.  Even the worst Thai restaurant in Thailand won't use canned veggies!

Eating out in America is awful.  I'm remembering now why there are so many guides to "eating clean while eating out" and so on. Everything has flour in it, and breaded and fried seems to be the way to do everything.  We've forgotten to ask about how food is prepared, and get surprised at least half the time.

One thing we love in the US -- black berries and blue berries...

And it is amazing how easy it is to tell when vegetables aren't fresh after eating nothing but for so long.

That said, we've been feasting on berries and grass fed beef where we can, and cooking with family who are also paleo (and have pastured bacon!).  That has been great.

Grass fed beef, and organic veggies from a local CSA in the US.
