Wondering if there are any Primal or Paleo eaters in the house? This is not intended to be a what should you eat on the trail to stay healthy discussion, I'm not looking for arguments for or against eating grains, complex carbs or different diets in general. What I would like to know is if anyone here is Primal and has done the AT, either a thru or sections and what you did as far as food along the way? My initial thought is dehydrate most of my own meals ahead of time, although everything I read is that doing the entire trail with meals made ahead of time doesn't work because your tastes change. It also seems like a lot of drop boxes to mail out. But you could simply create a huge variety of meals so as not to get bored with your food and supplement with town stops for fresh produce and meat.
There has to be a way to do a thru hike primal (ish)..... I realize things look different on paper and when planning, I mean to me it looks possible, I'm just wondering if it's been done successfully...or not and how?
I have a feeling I'm going to hear a lot of crickets in this thread.
