I don't trim the fat much except for normal esthetic cooking purposes. I
don't worry about saturated fat at this point. But I do try to get grassfed
meat whenever possible.

Technically no, because coffee beans supposedly cannot be eaten raw,
although I personally drink coffee.

Purely paleo people probably didn't drink this much. I drink a lot of water
though.
