My typical week of food consists of venison I got myself, local pork, local beef and seafood.

Of all of that, only the sockeye is not local. OH, I still have that wild shrimp in the freezer, that I paid $1 a pound for.

I go to the supermarket for bananas. Gotta have my cheap potassium.

I get raw goat milk and chicken eggs down the street, but now that I have geese, ducks and chickens, it won't be too long before I never have to buy eggs.

Veggies? I think you get more bang for your buck, both caloric and nutrient wise, from good meat, but when I want veggies, I go to the farmers market, or join a CSA.

It's pretty easy!!!!

I love scallops!!! I do the banana thing too. Do you eat any kind of wheat?

I read in one of those Natural Health magazines a few months ago that Maine was one of the best states about eating local. ME, along with CA and NH, have great companies for cosmetics/personal care too.

Yeah, I make my own bread using unbleached, unbromated (horrible stuff, bromine) organic wheat.

I don't eat tons of it. Most grain I eat is either quinoa or millet.

I've been phenomenally lucky that the two states I've lived in, and the state I work in, are ME, CA and NH.

NH is trying to destroy itself in this area though.

There is a goat farm in NH that makes great goat milk soap, and other products, that I like to shop at. They ship too, if you are interested.

Oh yeah, if you ever go visit your sistah in Maine, I can hook you up with great seafood sources. Scallops at 3.95 is insane.

Nope.

Regarding your post above -- if you just look at most vegitarians, there skin and hair are often dull and a sign that they are missing vital nutrients in their diet. The same can be said of those eating highly processed meals...

Yup. When people typically go vegetarian, they at first realize big health gains, mostly due to a decrease in toxic food loads.

Then in a few years, key deficiencies kick in. Hair, skin and teeth are some of the most visible, but there are also behavioral changes as well.

Maine and NH are like Colorado with rain. Two of the better places for food and people in the USA.

Maine and Colorado are better than NH because it's relatively easy to get permits to use herbal remedies.
