Paleo vs Primal

The first thing I learned is that Paleo and Primal are not equal. They both start with the same principles, but from what I can gather, Primal looks a little more relaxed.

Primal does allow for butter and dairy for those who are not lactose intolerant (whoo hoo!) and Paleo seems to exclude some other stuff that Primal is okay with. Paleo, strangely, allows diet sodas and artificial sweeteners, which I avoid overall. I think my version will be more Primal.

Also I have learned that people have strong opinions about Paleo/Primal, both pro and con, and get downright nasty when talking about it. Yipe. Let's be civil, people.

Today's food was mostly Primal. I'm trying to use up a few things in the kitchen, and I did treat myself to a square of dark chocolate tonight. After a trip to the grocery I'm a little apprehensive about sticking to this. There's corn syrup and sugar in sausage? Really? Why is that necessary??!?
