    Fruit & Nuts
| Blessing's Alive and Radiant Foods makes dehyrated kale chips in four flavors with assorted spices. I would consider them all paleo, except for the one with agave. You can order through their site. Also see a couple more kale chips below. |

Blessing's Alive and Radiant Foods also makes Raweo cookies (carob cookies on the outside, vanilla bean cashew cream on the inside). They are not completely paleo, and are sweet. Can find at Amazon. |

Raw nuts are a very paleo snack. I can buy them at any of the many health foods stores in my area. I can't see spending more and buying them by mail. But possibly not everybody has as many local options. Bergin Nut Company products are the bulk foods that Amazon stocks. There are lots. Many are not paleo. This search returns just Bergin's raw nuts in bestselling order. |

Organic Berry Powerful Trail Mix is a paleo snack that is a unique trail mix containing the following list of ingredients: gogi berries, blueberries, cherries, cocoa nibs (not paleo), Hunza mulberries, cranberries, Hunza golden raisins, coconut, almonds, apricot kernels. Package weighs 7 ounces. | ![]() |

Caveman Cookies come in five flavors: The Original is made with honey, almond flour, walnuts, raisins, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon. The Tropical flavor has almond flour, honey, unsulfured coconut, macadamia nuts, and ginger. The Alpine has honey, hazelnut flour, almond flour, and carob. And now Rainforect and Alpine. This is one of the most popular items on this page. I'd pick the Tropical flavor as it doesn't list honey as the first ingredient, though I expect it would still be sweeter than I'd like. Available at select stores around the country. See site for store locator. This paleo snack is now stocked at Amazon, where it ships for free when over $25. |

| Didi's Baking For Health has an entire line of raw vegan snacks. Some products have vanilla, which was the only non-paleo ingredient I could find. No agave syrup, so not too sweet. I like the Cashew Ginger Sungem and Mac ‘n Cheese. I pass them while waiting to check out at my food coop. Seven of the flavors are available through Amazon, but shipping is per item, making them expensive to buy there. Order from Didi's page. |
| Eat Natural in the UK makes bars that are nuts and fruit. Only the Macadamia and Fruit Bar is near paleo. You can buy in the US at Amazon, where it is eligible for free shipping. |
| At Element Bars you can design your own energy bars. Many ingredients are not paleo, but enough are that you can create your own date-based paleo snack bar. You can also personalize the label, which could make these neat party favors. A dozen will cost you $36 + $6 shipping. |
| Freeland Foods Go Raw makes hand-crafted organic, raw living food. Product line includes bars, snacks, cookies, and real live chocolate. Lots of flaxseeds, which are paleo questionable. And those taste flaxseedy. Distributed nationally. Buy here or at Amazon, where it is eligible for free shipping. |

Clif Bar has the Kit's Organic line of fruit and nut bars. Bars are made with five or fewer 100% organic ingredients. In four flavors, though only the Berry Almond is truly paleo. Find in your local store, buy online here, or through Amazon. (Other Clif products are not paleo, and the Nectar line has been discontinued.) |

Lärabars are a dried date-based bar with 19 flavors with many of them paleo. (The exceptions having peanuts or cocoa.) They are the favorite paleo snack of the paleo crowd. My favorite was the Ginger Snap, but it is now the new Tropical Fruit Tart. Similar is the Key Lime Pie, but it is rather gooey. Both are descended from the Coconut Cream Pie. These are the least sweet. Also I find the Tropical Fruit Tart to be more filling than the Ginger Snaps. Possibly due to higher saturated fat. The Ginger Snap has total fat of 14 grams, but only 1 gram is saturated. The Tropical Fruit Tart has total fat of only 12 grams, but 7 grams are saturated. Available at stores or at Amazon, where it is eligible for free shipping. Note that price varies by flavor. Some flavors at some times may be cheaper than you can buy locally. |
| Living Intentions makes a line of sprouted and seasoned nut blends. Sold as Gone Nuts! in eight flavors. Some have wheat-free soy. Fully paleo is Cilantro. Can buy online here or at Natural Zing or through Amazon. |
| Living Nutz germinates nuts and then dehydrates them at low temperatures. Dates are added. They are spiced. Vanilla extract is present. In a dozen flavors, but many have soy sauce with wheat. Can buy online here. The Raw Organic Live Cinnamon-Pecans is available at Amazon. |
| Livin' Spoonful makes crackers made from sprouted sunflower seeds. They come in four flavors. No grains. You can buy online at this web site or some at Natural Zing and at Amazon. |

Organic Mystic Mountain Trail Mix is an exotic mixture of almonds, pecans, cranberries (apple juice sweetened, sunflower oil), hunza raisins and hunza mulberries. Caution . . . this mix is so good you can't put it down. Young and old will find this mixture habit forming. 6.5 ounce package. | ![]() |
| NoGii now has three paleo bars. One is nuts and seeds, another is nuts and berries, and the third is nuts and tropical fruit. Honey is the second or third ingredient in all of them. I have not tried them, but I doubt I would like such sweet bars. Also available at Amazon. |
![]() |
Paleo People has eight "Paleo Style" granola snack products. Some loose and some in clusters. Some have non-paleo cacao or coffee. Some have flax meal. You can buy online here, in some retail stores, and at Amazon. |

SeaSnax is a popular seaweed snack. They are in large sheets which can be rolled around food. Or simply eaten as a snack. Also now in small snack-sized sheets. They use olive oil in the selected one and a small amount of sea salt. The manufacturer claims they are strangely addictive. I can buy them at my food coop. The website has a store locator. Many are listed at Amazon. |
| UliMana makes raw Lemon Fig Pecan Drops. It is all organic and contains dates, figs, pecans, cashews, coconut, cinnamon, lemon essential oil, and Celtic sea salt. Can buy online here or through Amazon. |
    100% Fruit

I make my own applesauce. It is quite easy once you get the hang of it (and have a food mill). And I can load it up with cinnamon. Here are my instructions. But this is a snack section, and so I will focus on organic applesauce in snack-sized packaging that hasn't been sweetened. (Mott's is not organic and has HFCS, and while Santa Cruz is organic, it has been sweetened with high fructose apple concentrate.) Earth's Best comes in cinnamon and plain. They get free 2-day shipping (as they are marketed as baby food, but of course people of any age can enjoy). |
| Ella's Kitchen has a line of organic smoothie fruits and Stage 1 baby food that is fruit and vegetables. You can buy at Amazon, where many are eligible for free shipping. Warning: Manufacturer's website is covered with unnecessary Flash. |
| Ariel Natural Foods makes Fruitwell, freeze dried snacks that are crunchy and crisp. Products are just fruit. In four flavors: apple, banana, mango, pineapple, and a variety pack. |
| Funky Monkey Snacks makes crunchy freeze-dried fruit in bags. As far as I can tell--this is a form over content website--the products are just fruit and cinnamon. Available in many flavors: Applemon, Bananamon, Carnival Mix, Jibealime, MangOJ, Pink Pineapple, Purple Funk, and a variety pack. Buy online at Amazon with free shipping. |
| Materne in France makes GoGo squeeZ, a 100% fruit squeezable applesauce in flavors: Apple Apple, Apple Banana, Apple Cinamon, Apple Peach, Apple Strawberry. Marketed to kids. Available at Whole Foods, or you can buy at Amazon with free shipping. |

They start with a base of whole apples and use natural purees and juices to flavor as well as natural flavor extracts. Sold under the name Real Fruit Snacks that are available in both organic and non-organic. Flavors include: strawberry, raspberry, berry blend, orchard blend, blueberry, cherry, sour apple, wild berry, and grape. Buy at Amazon, where they are eligible for free shipping. |
| Mrs. May's Naturals has some freeze dried fruit chips that are paleo (apple, pineapple, pear, and strawberry). They also have bars and other snacks, but those include non-paleo ingredients like sugar. You can buy the chips at Amazon, where they are eligible for free shipping. |

Açaí is a small purple berry from the Brazilian Amazon that is claimed to be packed with antioxidants, healthy omega fats, amino acids and dietary fiber. The problem is it is way overhyped. For antioxidants it is only middling. Darker fruits, like Concord grapes and blueberries, have more. Information on the berry can be found at Wikipedia. It gets listed here as it is a top seller at Amazon, and it is useful to add flavoring to paleo smoothies and other foods. Note that unit cost is cheaper for the pouch shown above under Navitas Naturals. |
| Stretch Island Fruit makes a line of organic fruit leather and FruitaBü, a Smooshed Fruit. They are nothing but fruit. In eight flavors: Apple, Apricot, Blackberry, Cherry, Grape, Mango, Raspberry, Strawberry, and a variety pack. Available at TrueFoodsMarket and Amazon, where it is eligible for free shipping. |
| Organic Dried Mulberries: Organic white mulberries have a subtle natural sweet taste with a soft crunchy texture that whets your appetite. 5 ounces. | ![]() |
| Willamette Valley Fruit has three marionberry (a blackberry cultivar: see Wikipedia article) bars that also have other fruits (blueberry, apple, or strawberry). There is also a very non-paleo one with chocolate, sugar and soy. Website has a zip code driven where-to-buy. |

Grass-fed beef snack sticks aren't jerky, but they are close. All ingredients of this paleo snack are paleo: grass-fed beef, water, sea salt, black pepper, red pepper, garlic, coriander. | ![]() |

Turkey Jerky - Nitrate Free. The only ingredients are turkey and celtic sea salt. It is also available in Cajun and With Cranberries. | ![]() |
![]() |
Lowrey's Bacon Curls Microwave Pork Rinds are not only delicious, they're high in protein, and contain 60% less fat than fried pork rinds. Eat them right from the bag or with your favorite hot sauce, dip, salsa or barbecue sauce. Apparently they are loaded with salt, which isn't listed on the web. You can buy at Amazon, where it is eligible for free shipping. |
| Golden Valley Natural Organic Beef Jerky is not paleo. It is loaded with additives. The cattle were fed grains. But it was the closest jerky at Amazon that I could find. Best is to buy a dehydrator and make one's own. But if you really want to buy, here it is at Amazon, where it is eligible for free shipping. |
![]() |
Nick's Sticks has Grass-Fed Beef Snack Sticks and Free-Range Turkey Snack Sticks. No soy sauce. Also available at Amazon, where it is eligible for free shipping. |
| Native American Natural Foods produces Tanka Bar and Tanka Bites. They are grass-fed bison and cranberry in either bar or nugget form. In either traditional or hot. Unfortunately the cranberries are sugared making this a sweet product and not completely paleo. Now also available in Tanka Wild Stick form. You can buy online here, in retail stores, or through Amazon. |

Crown Prince Natural Smoked Oysters in Pure Olive Oil is the best selling smoked oysters at Amazon, where it is sold by the case and ships free. Other smoked oysters have non-paleo oils. I buy these at my HFS and they are very nice. And like some Amazon reviewers, I drink the residual oil. Contains 0.47 grams Omega 3 per 3-oz. can. See Bestsellers in Oysters. See many other Crown Prince items. |

Crown Prince Naturally Smoked Baby Clams in Olive Oil is sold in a snack-size pull-top can. These have salt added. Others have non-paleo oils. Buy at Amazon. See Bestsellers in Clams. |

Henry & Lisa's Natural Seafood Wild Alaskan Pink Salmon contains pink salmon fillet, water, salt, and nothing else. No skin. No bones. It is like a can of salmon flavored tuna. Comes in a convenient pull-top can. Hence it makes it into this snack section. But it has added salt. See below in Wild Food for a No Salt Added one. Contains 0.71 grams Omega 3 per half 6-oz. can. Find locally or at Amazon. See Bestsellers in Salmon. | ![]() |
They also have a Solid White Albacore Tuna, 5-Ounce in a pull-top can. It has 2.8 grams Omega 3 per serving. See Bestsellers in Tuna. |

Sardines are not only a very paleo snack, but a convenient way to get healthy Omega 3s and calcium (if not boneless) in your diet. You don't even need a can opener to open the can. Sardines, of course, come in dozens of varieties. There are different types and sizes of fish. They are prepped differently (boneless, skinless, etc). They can be spiced (some unnecessarily with salt). And they can be packed in olive oil or water (or non-paleo oils). Here are hundreds at Amazon. All of the ones that make the first page are eligible for free shipping. |

Polar Kipper Snacks is skinless, boneless, naturally hot-smoked (kippered) fillets of herring. It is just herring and salt. Can buy at Amazon, where it is sold by the case and ships free. See many other Polar items. |
| Alaska Smokehouse has three wild Coho Salmon jerkies. Only two of them are paleo: Smoked, and Pepper Garlic. The new Pepper Garlic Salmon Jerky is generously sprinkled down with pepper and garlic before the Double Smoke process, providing a bold taste with a spicy kick. Buy at Amazon, where it is eligible for free shipping. See many other Alaska Smokehouse items. |

Portugese Sardines in Spring Water, with no added salt or oil. An easy paleo snack which you can alternate with your pemmican. They are packed when Omega-3 levels are at their highest, by a family that has been harvesting Sardines for over a century. Certified Kosher and packed with Omega-3s, protein and Vitamin D. | ![]() |

Taste Specialty Foods Tsar Royale, White Sturgeon, Farmed Caviar, USA, 8-Ounce Tin. Here's an exotic paleo snack. Cheap caviars have unpaleo artificial dyes and preservatives. But not this unpasteurized one. Included in the Amazon price is expedited shipping for this refrigerated item. This is a good item for the holiday season (which is when most caviar is sold). Hand carved Mother of Pearl spoons are the traditional accoutrements used to serve caviar. And it should be served over ice. |
    Other Animal-Based Snacks
| Roland Quail Eggs. Are you wondering why quail eggs are listed here? Well, they are paleo. And while they would make an odd snack, they are ready to serve and would make a convenient paleo appetizer, which are snacks. You can buy at Amazon, where it is eligible for free shipping. |

The Blue Mountain Cashew Creamery in Floyd, VA has a line of raw and organic non-dairy cashew-based frozen desserts. Close to paleo ice cream. Can buy at US Wellness (which you can ship with your pemmican). All but one are sweetened with high fructose agave syrup. In six flavors:

![]() |
| Edward & Sons produces Let's Do Organic Creamed Coconut. It is unsweetened. Replaces diary and coconut milk in sauces, curries, smoothies and more. You can buy at Amazon, where it is eligible for free shipping. |
![]() |
MimicCreme is a non-dairy cream substitute that is made with almonds, cashews, and a little rice starch. (Ok, it isn't completely paleo.) Use the unsweetened one in any recipe in the same amount as cream. They also have sweetened ones which are clearly not paleo. In aseptic boxes. Can buy online here or at Amazon, where it is eligible for free shipping. |
| Natural Value Coconut Milk is the only coconut milk that I can currently find that is free of guar gum and preservatives. Plus it is now in a BPA-free can. Available in both organic and non-organic. Guar gum, besides not being paleo, is an unnecessary stabilizer that is used only for cosmetic reasons. Hence this is the only one I now list on this page. It is distributed through UNFI to natural foods stores, but only in the West. You can buy at Amazon: non-organic and organic. Sold in a case of 12, which ships for free. |

    Coconut Water
| Book: | |
![]() |
Coconut Water: For Health and Healing by Dr. Bruce Fife educates the reader on the health benefits of coconut water. Coconut water's unique nutritional profile gives it the power to balance body chemistry, ward off disease, fight cancer, and retard aging. History and folklore credit coconut water with remarkable healing powers, which medical science is now confirming. People like the book, with the caveat that it can be overly scientific. |
| Water: | |
| Amy & Brian Naturals Coconut Juice comes in three variations: With Pulp, without pulp, and With Lime. They came in 17.5-ounce and 10-ounce cans. Comments at Amazon say this one has a lovely light, clean, fresh taste, and is a little sweeter than the others. This is because their coconuts come from Thailand. Both small and large cans are now sourced from the same coconuts. You can buy directly from Amy & Brian, use the store locator on their site, or buy from Amazon. | |
| C2O Pure Coconut Water is a newcomer. Like the Amy & Brian it is from Thailand and is sweeter. Note that the coconut waters are having a competition to see who can create the most obnoxious website where form is paramont and getting information is secondary. If you are patient, you will be able to find a store locator on their site (in my area it is only Whole Foods), or buy from Amazon. | |
| Harvest Bay 100% Coconut Water. This is distributed to natural food stores in the East and West. Their website now shows an 8.5 oz bottle with different graphics. It is not currently available at Amazon. | |
| Naked Juice 100% Coconut Water. This is one of the sites designed entirely with the obnoxious Flash and you are forced to go through their art show and slow loading before getting to the information. Apparently the juice manufacturers have a competition to see who can have the most obnoxious site. Buy from Amazon. | |
| Nature Factor Organic Young Coconut Water from certified organic coconuts. This also has a lovely light, clean, fresh taste, but is less sweet than Amy & Brian's. You can buy at Amazon. | |
| O.N.E. (One Natural Experience) makes a coconut water that is 100% natural coconut. (Only go to their website if you want to see how obnoxious and useless websites can be when you hire a graphics designer to design it.) Available in 11.2-ounce and 8.5-ounce Tetra Paks. They do not sell online, but you can find it at Amazon, where it is the second best-seller. | |
| Vita Coco makes a 100% pure coconut water. And another annoying web site that forces you to undergo their entertainment before you can get to the product information. This one is not as sweet compared to the others. This is the one I buy. It comes in many flavors (I buy the plain) and is the best selling coconut water. You can buy at Amazon, where the price is very good if sold by Amazon. | |
| Zico switched to a water made from concentrate. Now it has also come out with a Pure Premium. The Amazon reviews claim the concentrate tastes and smells funny. It is bottled on a line that also bottles dairy and soy. Some like the premium better than Vita Coco. You can find them locally and at Amazon. |

Dehydrators. A must for homemade jerky and pemmican. Can also dry fruit and herbs. Inexpensive ones without thermostats are $30, but I consider a thermostat a must. Healthier and tastier to dry at a low temperature. The round ones are expandable up to 30 trays. The one I have and highly recommend is the Excalibur 2900. It is the one used by all serious dehyraters. The square trays are easier to fill than round with a hole in the middle. I don't see a need for a timer. If you dry at a low temperature the time will be long and need not be exact. Also see Paleodiet: Dehydrators section. |
![]() |
Meat Grinders. Anyone following paleo can justify owning a meat grinder. You can make you own paleo sausage (also see Patty Press), grind suet before rendering, powder narrow jerky strips for pemmican (by far the best way to do this), make use of full animal sides, or even just to grind up leftovers for hash. The hand ones that clamp to the counter are apparently fine. Electric, which is what I bought, can run $100. If you have any KitchenAid Classic stand mixer, which won't have much use now that you aren't baking, you can buy a reasonably priced food grinder attachment for it. |
![]() |
Slow Cooker, aka "Crock Pot". Useful. Many consider this a must have in a paleo kitchen. Can start before you go to bed or in the morning. You want one with a removable sleeve. Then you can prepare it the evening before and put in the refrigerator. Before going to work you simply put it in the base and start it up. And much easier to clean. A neat option is one with a probe that will shift to a keep warm mode when the meat is done. A slow cooker is the best way to cook pulled pork. Slow cookers work best if they are at least half full. Don't buy one that is too big. N.B. Long cooking times with acidic foods can lead to hydrolysis of proteins. |
| Thermometer, Infrared. These are downright fun to play with. This is like the one I have. You aim the laser beam at an object and it displays the surface temperature. Check out the temperature of anything. Food safety people use these. I use mine to check the temperature of the suet while I'm rendering it when the moisture has been removed and the temperature starts to rise. Also good for measuring the surface temperature of a pan. They also have automotive troubleshooting uses. |

    Coconut Oils
| Nutiva makes a USDA-certified-organic, extra-virgin coconut oil that is cold-pressed from fresh coconuts within two hours of chopping. It has a light true-coconut taste, aroma. This is the one I buy and is by far the top selling coconut oil at Amazon, where it is eligible for free shipping. There is also a more economical larger size. |
| And for the commercial kitchen you can buy coconut oil in the five gallon size! The best selling in this size at Amazon is Extra Virgin Cold Pressed, Certified Organic from Wilderness Family Naturals. |
| Tropical Traditions Expeller-Pressed Coconut Oil, Non-Certified - 5-gallon pail is cheaper at Amazon than the organic one listed above. Read about expeller-pressed at the Tropical Traditions website. They import many virgin organic coconut products, including oil, cream, flour, shedded, flakes, and chips. Website includes lots of information on coconut. At Amazon they also have health and personal care products. |
    Fruit Oils
![]() |
I hesitated putting olive oil here. It is so readily available. And at Amazon a search returns thousands, as it also returns every food that includes olive oil as an ingredient. The only oil that would be considered paleo is First Cold Pressed. This process is low tech, as a paleo food should be. Generally, but not always, if it is labelled Extra Virgin it will be First Cold Pressed. And of course organic is more paleo. So I listed just this best selling one: Zoe Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, which is eligible for free shipping. |
| Palm oil, is a paleo fruit oil that is excellent for deep fat frying. It has a smoke point of 455°F. Omni Palm Products has an unrefined one that is available through Amazon and is eligible for free shipping. |
| La Tourangelle Avocado Oil is the best selling avocado oil at Amazon. It is handcrafted from premium fresh avocados. This emerald green oil has a fine fruity roundness that makes it lovely for both sweet and savory applications. On salads, it contributes a hint of avocado flavor, and it is wonderful drizzled over slices of grapefruit and melon. It has a 500°F smoke point (the highest of any extra virgin oil) making it useful for any application (stir-frying, frying, sautéing). It is eligible for free shipping. |
| Roland White Truffle Oil is a highly fragrant infusion of white truffle flavor in extra virgin olive oil. Imported from Italy, this product is golden in color and has an intense, earthy, flavor. White Truffle Oil should be used sparingly due to its intense flavor. A little goes a long way. Buy at Amazon where it ships free. Be careful. Some truffle oils are not paleo. The most popular one at Amazon is based on grapefruit seed oil. Fruit seeds are not supposed to be digested, but to pass through and still be viable. They would never have been a food. |
| Roland Black Truffle Oil is a product of Italy. The ingredients include extra virgin olive oil, black truffle (tuber aestvum vin), black truffle aroma. Suggested serving size is 1 tbsp. Buy at Amazon where it ships free. |
    Other Nut Oils
| Roland Virgin Macadamia Oil makes the bestselling Macadamia Nut Oil at Amazon. It has a nutty sweet taste. The 410°F smoke point is fairly high, making this good for high temperature cooking. It is eligible for free shipping. |
| La Tourangelle Roasted Walnut Oil is the bestselling Walnut Oil at Amazon. Adds a rich walnut taste to salad dressing, baking, and grilled meat or fish. Add towards the end of your beef bourguignon or meat dishes. Good with apples and pears. One of the highest natural sources of Omega 3. Suitable for medium-high heat and perfect for sautéing. It is eligible for free shipping. |
| La Tourangelle Roasted Hazelnut Oil is the bestselling Hazelnut Oil at Amazon. Adds a rich hazelnut taste to salad dressing, baking, and grilled meat or fish. It goes better with lemon juice than with vinegar. Suitable for medium-high heat (smoke point 430°F) and perfect for sautéing. It is eligible for free shipping. |
| La Tourangelle Roasted Almond Oil is the bestselling Almond Oil at Amazon. Adds a rich almond taste to salad dressing, baking, and grilled meat or fish. With a fresh roasted almond flavor, the oil reveals subtle nuances when combined with other ingredients. Its delicate character makes it a good substitute for olive oil in cases where walnut oil and hazelnut oil are just too powerful. Almond oil is very popular in India with duck and curry, and in China it is also used with chicken and duck. Suitable for medium-high heat (smoke point 420°F) and perfect for sautéing. It is eligible for free shipping. |
| La Tourangelle Roasted Pecan Oil is the bestselling Pecan Oil at Amazon. Adds a rich pecan taste to salad dressing, baking, and grilled meat or fish. Add towards the end of your beef bourguignon or meat dishes. Good with apples and pears. Suitable for medium heat and perfect for sautéing. It is eligible for free shipping. |
| La Tourangelle Roasted Pistachio Oil is the bestselling Pistachio Oil at Amazon. Adds a rich pistachio taste to salad dressing, baking, and grilled meat or fish. Add towards the end of your beef bourguignon or meat dishes. Good with apples and pears. Suitable for medium heat and perfect for sautéing. It is eligible for free shipping. |
| The benefits of Krill Oil have been touted by Michael Eades, MD in Why krill oil? and on many other websites. It is an extract from Antarctic krill that is rich in cell membrane building blocks and considered better than regular fish oil. You can buy by price, as it all comes from the same source. I have found that it is cheaper at Amazon than at my food coop. Buy a couple, or something else, and you get free shipping. |

Carlson Fish Oil is considered one of the best. It is available in many forms and sizes. This search here has it by bestselling items. I like the convenience of capsules. I take one of this a day along with one of the krill oil. See all at: Amazon. The capsules I buy are not shipped by Amazon, but shipping is only $0.99. It is an excellent price. You can use this Fish Oil Calculator to see how many capsules Robb Wolf believes one should take. I find the results excessive. |

Vitamin D3 in Wild Salmon Oil. This Vitamin D3 comes in a base of Wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon Oil, which is naturally rich in Vitamin D3 and certified sustainable by the Marine Stewardship Council. Each 300 mg softgel contains 60 mg of omega-3s, including 46 mg of EPA & DHA along with the Vitamin D3. | ![]() |
    Animal Fats
| Pure Indian Foods is a family-owned New Jersey farm that makes organic ghee from grass-fed cows. Read on their website about the high standards they follow. Now dairy isn't usually considered paleo, but ghee has almost all of the protein and lactose removed and one is left with a high smoke-point fat. You can buy through Amazon. |
| Stocked and shipped by Amazon is Nanak Pure Desi Ghee. Grass is pictured on the label. Correspondence from Nanak: "We try to source from grass fed cows and since our suppliers cannot guarantee, we cannot offer the guarantee further." At Amazon you have the choice of two sizes: 56 ounce and 28 ounce. Eligible for free shipping. |
![]() |
Duck Fat is tasty and recommended for cooking, as olive oil breaks down at a relatively low temperature. Use as a substitute for butter or frying oil. Many are available through Amazon. Most are imported from France. The one gallon size is domestic. The only duck fat that Amazon stocks is one that isn't pure, but has soy-based lecithins added. |

Ceylon cinnamon is considered the best. It is more expensive and hard to find. I learned that the more Ceylon cinnamon the better tasting the result is. Too much regular cinnamon and it gets bitter. I am able to order pound bags through my local food coop. It is the Frontier Natural Products one. On that page click the Info tab to read about the different cinnamons. You can buy it for less from Amazon where it is eligible for free shipping. See all the raving reviews, and as I write this it ranks #1 in Single Herbs & Spices. |

| Pumpkin, which is paleo, tends to get sweetened and used mostly in non-paleo foods. But pumpkin puree works fine in soups. It can be added to paleo chili. Here are recipes (which may need slight adaptation to make orthodox paleo): paleo pumpkin muffins and paleo pumpkin pancakes and Paleo Pumpkin Pudding Recipe. This is one of the bestselling natural foods at Amazon: Farmer's Market Foods Organic Canned Pumpkin, 15-Ounce Cans (Pack of 12), and it ships free. |

The Yuzu is a sour Japanese citrus fruit, used both for its juice and its aromatic rind. The yuzu has an aroma and flavor that is distinct from any other citrus fruit. The flavor is less sharp and more subtle than lemon. Its juice is commonly used as a seasoning, somewhat like the way the lemon is used in other cuisines. It is available pure, which would be paleo. Have on hand to replace lemon juice. It is hard to find locally. But it is available at Amazon. Also see NY Times article: The Secrets Behind Many Chefs' Not-So-Secret Ingredient. |

Wedderspoon Raw Organic Manuka Honey Active 16+ from New Zealand. Honey is only paleo in very small quantities. It would have been hard to collect without protective clothing. And, of course, it would have been organic and raw. I included this one for those that are unable to give up sweets. It is the bestselling honey at Amazon, where it ships free. An activity of 16+ is laboratory tested by an independent laboratory to be equivalent to a 16% antiseptic solution. It is chemical free, pesticide free, antibiotic free, and GMO free. Hives are made from environmentally friendly material. Each jar is traceable back to the master beekeeper. Area of forage is 5km from intensive farming. |
| Really Raw Honey is totally unprocessed, unheated, and unstrained, so it still contains all the pollen, propolis, enzymes, and trace minerals. Creamy, smooth and spreadable, Really Raw Honey is more solid than liquid and each jar is capped with crunchy bits of honeycomb, pollen and propolis. Available at: ShopOrganic and Amazon, where it is eligible for free shipping. |
| Sunny Acres Raw Honey Pure, natural, unheated honey from Sunny Acres' bees. Raw honey has long been used for healing wounds and as a preservative, due to its antibacterial properties. Truly raw honey will crystallize, while heated honey will remain in a liquid state along with losing the healthy benefits of raw. | ![]() |

Crown Prince sells a No Salt Added wild pink salmon. It is also the top selling canned salmon at Amazon where it ships free. Possibly as a No Salt isn't easily found in retail stores. However it is not a premium product. It is not completely bone-free. All the boneless ones have salt added. |

Winter Black French Truffles - Brushed. Black winter truffles are far superior to their summer cousins. There is a long pause between the time a truffle reaches full size and the time when it fully matures. Summer truffles are less flavorful since they are dug up before the full maturation period is reached in the winter months. This 1 oz jar is the smallest, and consequently cheapest, of the French truffles I could find at Amazon. Note there are much cheaper and inferior truffles that are Tuber Indicum which come from China. Deceptively they will still be called a product of France. For obvious reasons you will see they outsell on Bestsellers in Truffles. |

| Acording to Wikipedia's page on Prosciutto, it is sometimes cured with nitrites. This means, of course, that some isn't. So I have been trying to figure out which ones would then be paleo. Alma Gourmet's Prosciutto di Parma describes its process and it is only salt. You can buy an entire leg through Amazon. Now this isn't cheap, but would make a great meat to serve at a party. |
