@Jennie Adams I went Carnivore shortly after the pandemic. I noticed after I had to start wearing a mask every day for a 14hr shift in a high stress high pace environment that I began having issues with my ability to smell. It was like a light switch would be turned off and on interment. Sometimes I would be able to smell and others not at all. I was tested but never was positive. I gradually worsened until I just couldn't smell. At night I would have severe congestion in my nose and chest. When the mandate ended I slowly got better and currently my smell is like a light switch some days it works but most days it is off. I have nighttime congestion still in the form of a crazy cough until after I have woken up. Once I am up it is noticeably better. I have lost over 150 lbs. I feel overall great but I just want to be able to smell and get a good night's sleep unhindered by congestion. I believe strongly that me being forced to wear a mask all day is the reason behind this. Any thoughts?

@Robb I’m so glad a doctor is in the comments!! This “diet” I use that loosely, isn’t good for us. Is that correct?

This channel is so refreshing (and realistic). How to be mostly carnivore, on a real-life family budget. A lot of the carnivore "purists" (or downright cultists) act like you have to source from a local farm, raise the chickens yourself, or go to a high-end butcher, but that just isn't feasible for the average family; especially in this absurdly inflated economy.

Super helpful! Please re-do these shopping videos as you find new products. I learn so much from you! Walmart manager was foolish to stop you as viewers will want to go there to buy the products you mentioned (as I did).

Over this summer my daughter and I did a driving trip with friends, from Oregon to S. Carolina. On the way we mainly at eggs, beef sticks, cheese, pork rinds, and if we stopped at a fast food place, I followed how you order food shown in your short videos. I couldn't believe how much weight and inflammation I lost . And for sitting a long length of time, my joints didn't hurt as much. Now I have to figure out how to do this at home while feeding others too. I'm also glad to see that you eat other meant types other than beef. Thanks.

I cook for my family by cooking the meat first and setting some aside for me before I finish the dish for my family. Although they have all gone much closer to carnivore just from watching how it helps me.

I had no idea about the white and black meat packages at Walmart. Thanks for that tip!

Ever since the US allowed a Chinese company to buy Smithfield, I have not bought their meats.

I really enjoyed this video! So nice to see a normal haul from a local store, instead of a local butcher or pasture raised stuff all the time. This is doable. 😊

It might be "doable" but parasites are a real thing and this meat is so so bad for you. Do your research.. especially if you're going to primarily eat dairy and meat.

Your channel provides the best and most practical help for living carnivore. Love your segments on what you order at _____ and that you actually film yourself ordering. Videos like this are SO helpful and educational. Had no idea there was ribeye pork! Theory is fine if that’s what you need, but your content is what we need for practical, day to day application.

Loved this video! Laughing so hard that you went to a different store. I would watch a grocery haul every single day :)

It was very heartening to see you pick up a lot of the things I use...You expect to be told you have to spend 3x the amount you have to spend to 'do it right'...

I love your ‘what to eat out as a carnivore series’ and now this shopping video!!! Thank you for making the carnivore or ketovore diet DOABLE. You are so practical and in touch with life. You remind me of my hero, Dr Berry. Eat the best quality you can afford and Walmart is cheaper than most. I hate the influencers who shame you into thinking if it’s not grass fed, grass finished and panda massaged, you are doomed. I can’t afford that stuff. Also you explain the science of READING LABELS for ingredients, this is so important and often overlooked. I love Two Good yogurt and everyone else insists on whole milk, unflavored, sour yuck. My daily dessert is one of these with 1 tablespoon of shredded coconut and 1 tablespoon of chopped nuts. Once a week I add 1 tablespoon of stevia sweetened chocolate chips. LOL after one year sugar free eating, I cannot tolerate ice cream anymore (diarrhea). Keep up the great work and delete the naysayers. If the woke can cancel, the truth seeker should also. Praying for you and the family, may the Lord protect you and provide for all your needs. Blessings from PA! 😊🙏

Thank you Laura! very informative video. Please keep doing these. 😀

About the GV frozen beef patties. We had been using them frequently and loved them! But recently they have been cooking up different and causing me severe gastric distress. I do have an autoimmune disease which makes me extremely sensitive 😮‍💨 HOWEVER we discovered a Sam's Choice frozen boxed alternative that is 100% Angus beef 1/4 pound patties. They're $16 and some change for 12 of them here locally. And they are a game changer!!! My goodness they cook up so plump and juicy and the flavor is out of this world! Grilled or pan fried they really are excellent for frozen beef. Thank you for your carnivore hauls! I learn so much from them😊 Carni on!

Love what you’re doing. Thanks so much for the great tips! 💓

I wonder about giving a kitten some meat she really needs to putvon some weight she is the runt and so so tiny. Compared to the others now they are about 4 or 5 months old now. Eating mostly free community pet pantry food. Dog food mostly because my stepson won't buy catfood for them. I think they would do good on meat. But just can't afford it for all his cats. There are 4 kittens and 5 adults 1 is the mama the daddy got away before they moved in with me.

Of course we love hauls ❤ thanks for putting the leg work in!

I've been carnivore for 8 months and still am constantly strategizing for the best/most economical groceries. Most of the carnivores I follow focus on super high-quality grass-fed type of foods... I like to lean that direction as well, but that gets hard on the bank. This is so much more accessible. Thank you!

As a farmer, who raises livestock. I just want to suggest getting in touch from a farmer local to you, that you could then purchase beef, pork etc. Whichever they may raise, and you could get a whole, half or quarter of an animal. Not only would you then know where your food is coming from, you would save money in the long run and the meat taste amazing!! Not to mention you would always have meat on hand!

The only reason I now buy beef at Walmart instead of just Costco is because I heard you mention it on Cutting Against the Grain. Sometimes when I go, all the Ribeye is gone. I'll try in the morning. Thanks for your "real-life" suggestions. They're great.

Thank you for the helpful tips on buying meat! Some of that I didn’t know.

This was great, thank you so much Laura! I had never heard of ribeye pork chops. I’ve always gone out of my way to find the pork chops that have the dark meat on them and the extra fatty bits but never knew that they actually had a name, hooray! Yeah what I really found value here was learning about different cuts of meat and how to cook them. For instance I didn’t realize you could grill a chuck steak and eat it like a regular steak I thought it was only for low and slow. Thank you and more please! 😁

Laura, thanks for so many great videos. TIP: if you haven't tried CHUCK EYE TENDERS they are a great steak...the cut right next to the ribeye but at HALF THE PRICE. They lack the yummy deckle that runs around one edge of a ribeye....but a sacrifice I am willing to make for steaks I can eat more often than ribeye. LOVE THEM.

@@michelehafthudson2438 I get them at my local Harris Teeter, a large groc chain in the mid-Atlantic. I would just ask your butcher at your favorite groc store. They are sometimes called "Delmonico steaks". I don't have the room to be buying 1/4 sides of beef etc but am thinking of buying a "chuck roll" (about 20 lbs) to cut up at home and get a bunch of chuck roasts and steaks from, if I can get a good price on it. INFO: per THE SPRUCE The chuck roll is a large (approximately 20 pounds) boneless subprimal piece made up of the long section of meat between the ribs and the backbone. A skilled butcher can remove the ribs and backbone in one piece, and this piece of meat can then be divided in half. The section that overlays the ribs is usually used for ground beef, and what is left, after being trimmed and squared up, is called the chuck roll. The chuck roll actually has some tender muscles in it, including a few inches of the longissimus dorsi, which make excellent grilling steaks. In fact, this is the same muscle from which we get rib-eye steaks. But because there are quite a few tough muscles in the chuck roll too, one of the most common techniques is to separate the top section called the chuck eye (which contains the tender longissimus dorsi muscle) from the bottom section known as the chuck under the blade, which can be sliced thin for a stir-fry.

You pick out a lot of the stuff I pick out, lol. The Walmarts near me don't have a few of those pork rinds that yours has, but has most. I agree the Marketside brand hotdogs and sausages are great and taste awesome too. Thanks again, Laura!

Thanks for doing this video. I really appreciate seeing carnivore shopping somewhere other than Costco. I live 80 miles from the nearest Costco and don't have the ability to store meat in large quantities so Costco isn't an option for me. Just a note on the black and white packages in the meat department...the black packages are Angus beef, which is a type of cow. Same with the Wagyu beef. The white packages don't specify what type of cow the meat comes from but the Angus is definitely my favorite too.

Thank you for this I found it helpful and your videos at Costco and Aldi's.

I realized when I got home the package says that sugar is used in the curing process, but the nutritional info says no carbs and no sugars. A couple people in a carnivore community I just joined said to stay away from it, but I think I'll be good now that I watched this!
