EXCEPTIONS:

1. This obviously won’t apply to animal proteins for most people, but if you hunt/fish/etc., by all means extend the challenge!
2. Vegetables grown in your own garden are permitted, but as supplements, not features.
3. Non-wild grains/flours are permitted.
4. Salt and pepper are permitted. Honey may be used if no foraged sweeteners (e.g. Licorice fern) are available.
5. Food at social events to which you are invited/dinners out are permitted. However, food made for potlucks should follow the challenge!
