Comment of the Week

“Don’t pay attention to the haters, Mark. I love this blog, the PK lineup, and hope to check out Peluva in the future. The only mayo my family buys nowadays is PK, and we’ve enjoyed many of your dressings, too.

There’s a lot of skepticism in this community, and I get it. Those with an interest in alternative/ancestral health have been burned in the past. But in the years you’ve run this incredible blog, you’ve earned my trust, and I feel confident that you wouldn’t put your face on a product that you couldn’t stand behind in good conscience.

Maybe it’s dumb, but every time I see PK products at the grocery store, I grin as though I’ve bumped into an old friend. Your body of work means a lot to me, and even now, as you reach new heights of success, you still find the time to share a lot with the community. Those who think you’ve “sold-out” aren’t paying attention.

Congrats on turning 70, and keep doing what you’re doing!“

-Very kind, Oscar.
