Spelt

[White Spirit]

I prefer it to wheat on ideological grounds given that it is a more
ancient form but I don't really see why people are pushing it on
nutritional grounds; it has a comparitively negligible increase in
protein, negligible decrease in fat and still contains gluten so isn't
suitable for people with coeliac disease.

On the other hand, the fact that my ancestors ate it makes it a better
choice. I have decided to pursue an Anglo Saxon diet but without fish,
meat or dairy. Spaghetti is allowed on the basis that spelt and
tomatoes were known and I always substitute lentils for minced beef.

I don't want people to think I am copying the palaeolithic fad with my
vegan Anglo Saxon diet; we live in a sedentary society and I don't see
the point in pretending otherwise.

What are the approximate dates of your 'Anglo-Saxon' diet?

nix the tomatoes, then.

of course, if you are leaving out fish, meat and dairy, you might as well
toss in the tomatoes.

Leaving things out is still authentic; adding things that aren't is not

Nope. Tomatoes didn't reach Europe until several centuries after the
end of the Anglo Saxon period.

Are you talking about the Angles and the Saxons? Tomatoes were

Then you should look into Kamut (even older than Spelt)... I find it a
little too crude a form of wheat though.

I have a wheat intolerance (not coeliac) and Spelt is much easier on

I have no idea. It seems strange to me that people hail spelt as being
much more nutrional than wheat when, nutrionally, they are close to
identical. This does, of course, refer to the wholegrain varieties.

But pretending is the whole POINT! Cover yourself with woad and head

Romans were just its more ancient form, after all.

Then, after all that exertion, you can feast on whatever you want.
It's all good!

It is but people generally differentiate it from wheat when comparing
spelt with the more modern variety.
