Just look up the Hadza tribe's gut microbiome.

That's probably as close as you are going to get to truly paleo diets... not paleo-bros that eat only bacon, butter and meats.

I was going to post about "paleo" diets, but you beat me to it.

The Paleo Cafe would get closed down by the Health Department real fast if it actually served paleo foods.

I'm picturing a guy hauling a roadkill deer in, tossing it on a table and yelling "meat's up!" I mean, sure, they didn't have cars back then, but it's better than letting trash-eating deer meat go to waste.

I dimly recall a New Yorker article about people who eat roadkill. They do have their limits though. It has to be fresh roadkill :)

New paleo motto: "Maggots is protein"
