Thick soup made from clams, using cream -- not really paleo, or native
californian, but very tasty!

know of pemmican. Did they take other stuff with them? Are you saying they
tend to snack through the day and have a big meal at night>>
Yes, they carried stuff like pemmican, or jerky, or dried acorn meal. One
thing the Indians never did was have a "big meal". All small stuff. But
actually, when hunting, or on war expeditions, they might not eat at all.
This is something we find hard to understand. Indians fasted a lot, and the
reason is, surprise, surprise, is that fasting gives you more energy. Try it,
and you'll see!
