Salt, pepper and EVOO are great. No peanuts, but all other nuts and seeds are acceptable choices. Organic sunbutter is a good sub for peanut butter, but eat in moderation, because it's not the healthiest type of fat. Hope that helpss! Melissa Stewart,

Made a rump roast. Only used pepper and salt. Is that okay? And made broccoli used a little evoo, is that okay as well? So no peanuts at all? I'm hearing some people are eating pecans. What kind of nuts can we eat? Girlfriend is dying bc she can't eat peanut butter, and it's driving me crazy! Any substitutes we can get her? Im on my first day. Made a rump roast.

I am following a diet called Specific Carbohydrate Diet for my ulcerative colitis and the sneaky sugar thing ticks me off every single time I'm in the grocery store. I love you guys and what you do and I follow the blog because if you guys are able to eat it, I probably can (except for the sweet potatoes, but that's a different story!). At any rate, keep doing what you're doing and sharing this great information. It really helps people, even those who aren't "Paleo" or Cross Fitters. Your post about the cooler and your on the road food was awesome and very helpful for someone like me who has to take food with me pretty much anywhere I go. Yes!!!!

I LOVE Jerky so I went to Whole Foods and picked up 3 different kinds. I picked up some Buffalo, Beef and Turkey and all 3 had cane sugar. In a way I was kind of surprised but I'm currently readin the Omnivore's Dilemma and ironically I was on the chapter where he addresses the fact that almost everything (even in Whole Foods) is processed. So I eat it only as a treat and I try not to consume too much of it. ABSOLUTELY!! I LOVE Jerky so I went to Whole Foods and picked up 3 different kinds.

I brought my camp stove, and cooked up some chicken sausage, steamed spinach and asparagus in a hotel room a few days ago... But, of course, you can't fly with fuel cartridges, but it has worked great on our road trip! Thanks for sharing what has worked for you. Dallas Mark,

I even packed it in my luggage. It has an extra piece used to steam as well, which is what I used it for. You can steam your veggies, once done, put them in a piece of tupperware and wrap in a towel to keep warm. Then cook your meat. I made a lot of chicken, pork chops, etc., this way. When the meat is done unwrap the still warm veggies and enjoy. I did this in hotel rooms across the country.

There are some brands that preserve with something similar to MSG - bad stuff. The kind I use is by Bumble Bee, and the only ingredients are chunk white albacore tuna and water. @Sam: Just stick to the basics and see where that gets you! Train smart, recover well and pay attention to active recovery AND fun and play and you should end the summer in great shape. @Susan: We're taking your question main page, sister, because it speaks to the very heart of our Whole30 program. Thanks in advance for letting us share your experience with others, and we really hope it encourages you to jump on board with the program TODAY. We're looking forward to having you.
