carob is the fruit of a leguminous tree . we don't eat the seeds only the flesh . the reasonning behind excluding legumes doen't apply for carob IMO. jean-claude > Carob is actually a legume, so: no. However, since it doesn't contain any caffeine or similar, it seems to be used by some on this list as a semi-paleo ersatz-chocolate. I like carob a lot, but to me it tastes nothing like chocolate. So, I continue to eat my dark chocolate and occasionally some carob sweets and don't care that it's not paleo! > EF > > Stardust <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Would carob be considered to be paleo? > > > > Höstrusk och grå moln - köp en resa till solen på Yahoo!
