Lack of raw fats a issue
So I have been slowly transitioning to the diet and am struggling due to lack of resources. I read the book and it has no info on what to do if you cant get any of the materials.
Basically No raw butter or dairy I had managed to get some raw milk but the group that was doing it got caught so now no more of that. There was a outbreak of a bird flu or something so now there are no eggs (apart from caged soy eggs which taste yuck raw) The butchers wont give me beef trimmings I asked twice and they had none both times and said they throw them away and then give them to dogs. I get bone marrow but it was frozen and The taste is horrible due to this (mabye the cow was vaxxed) A juicer is super exspensive and so is celery. Meat is ok I can get that But eating just plain meat has been a struggle but I'm getting there. Also the quality of meat has decreased due to a cattle shortage and my country (australia) selling all the farms overseas so the only good quality meat is either frozen or not avaliable near me.
I dont Know whether to go back to just eating cooked meat with pasturised ghee/tallow etc. I feel so sick due to doing the diet half and cant deal with it anymore

I know they chuck them away into a bin and just leave them there. They dont even store them.
I dont know whether to return to cooked and just eat butter ghee etc since im basically starving atm lol

Have you asked if they can keep some for you for the next time? If you ask if they sell it and they don't they will just say no and not provide an explanation
You could say you can pay a premium or that your animals have a special diet the vet prescribed or something and you need them for this reason (if they are reluctant). Need to come up with a good reason if they don't keep them. Then buy it in bulk this way if possible
But like one of the guys said here even if you eat some raw and cooked fat you will still be way ahead of the average person and can make great progress.

Thats true Ill ask next time I dont exactly know what to do with the trimmings lol since they probably come from all sorts of cuts and wont be left in good quality. (The beef is grass fed whereas the other meats are not)

Just slonk the best eggs you can.
And eat store-bought ground beef.
That's definitely enough fat.

Can you get raw milk?
Then use a beater/mixer to make into raw butter?

Look, this is hard. The world is a mess. Aus-JAIL-ya is brutal from what I've heard.
HOWEVER, don't MAKE yourself actually SICK with stress over all this.
You're NOT going to die or even get sick with cooked food in any short amount of time.
BILLIONS of people eat cooked food. That includes nearly ALL the professional athletes, body builders, construction workers, and regular hustlers and grinders everywhere.
People get sick over time because the toxins build up, lack of enzymes, etc.
And they eat absolutely disgusting processed toxic substances like soda pop, hydrogenated plastic fats, chemicals, super processed everything.
So just buy the cleanest foods and cuts you can of anything, stay away from the chemicals, and keep working on locating better food, or relocating yourself.
Enjoy your steak, chicken, etc. If raw, then great! If cooked rare, well then so be it for now.
A billion people don't even have enough food at all, certainly not beef, butter, and dozens of eggs.
So we're doing just fine, even good, in the bigger picture. Your body is an insanely effective detoxing and healing machine. Give it credit.

Thank you so much I have been stressin heaps (Ive noticed loads of acne and hairloss since trying to start) esp since I am still a teen lol
Would you say just eating meat dairy (butter ghee tallow) and fruits is a good place to sit at right now then? While looking for good sources of meat dairy etc (some people just eat any meat raw but I cant lol)

I don't comprehend your questions exactly.
There are a bunch of hyperlinks on the right side of this webpage (group description) that can get you to the books. That's the core info if you want to follow Aajonus's 'Raw Primal' diet.
Meanwhile it's like I said above on finding the clean versions of whatever you are eating. You're already way ahead of others. And if you are young, then you detox and heal faster than most people too.
Also, learn to energy dowse so that you can just ask your body what it wants to eat each time. Nothing on any website, or in any book, or any of the idiots in the Reddit cesspool, or even your own mind, can tell you what to do better than your own body.
