You could also make mayonnaise with butter
Iām one of those pepper people, but I didnāt know it until after I tried carnivore. I think people should avoid all plant foods for 30 days when they try it, even if they think they donāt have a problem with plants, because Iām sure Iām not the only one this has happened to. I never thought I was a sensitive eater, just a picky one.
When I did my carnivore trial a while back, I included herbs & spices. A few months after that I learned I canāt tolerate some herbs and most spices very well as they trigger my heartburn to come back. Certain dairy also triggers it. It used to be a big problem for me, so now I avoid them and I donāt have to take medication for it anymore, which was awful because I shouldnāt have to take medication as a teenager, or really at any age.
I used to try and shove vegetables down my throat even though I thought they were gross for 10+ years, then I made myself slowly like them more after lots of exposure, because āthey are good for you!ā but⦠90% of them⦠they make my body do a lot of gross and uncomfortable things. I would gobble down cheese by the pound and gag at most fruits (besides the berries in our backyard) and vegetables when I was younger, maybe I was on to something.
After eating a largely animal based diet for around a year and a half now, Iām starting to like the herbs and spices I once loved a lot less, and usually lean towards just salt now. Meat wins over vegetables. Also, added fats like duck fat and butter are quite flavorful, as is reduced bone broth that can be made into a sort of gravy.
