Already finding cooked meats putting me off?

[tdister]

I'm not exactly happy right now. I've eaten rare steaks and good hamburger meat for a while and been eating raw eggs/yolks for a couple months. Just this week have I been trying to incorporate some raw into my diet. Some marrow some very lightly grilled sirloin, and continuing with some rare hamburger.

I like a fried egg (over easy) once in a while. Tried it yesterday and it made me feel heavy and gross (though I also just introduced into my diet the tallow in which they were fried, so that could be the reason in this case). Wasn't looking for it to do this and it doens't usually happen.

Today, I ate mostly raw until dinner; 4 egg yolks, 1 granny smith apple, an ultra rare sirloin, some broc and caul and `1/8 cup beef bone marrow and a tiny amount of kimchi. Then came dinner, oven roasted lemon-pepper chicken. A slightly overcooked organic supermarket bird (I seasoned and cooked it). I'm not on the verge of death or anything but it really just doesn't feel good in my stomach...heavy, greasy and gross. Almost like my body senses it as something that has to deal with instead of something beneficial. 2 weeks ago 'd have eaten over half the bird and been making myself stop.

Surely my body isn't already rejecting cooked foods, is it? I'm not already one of you crazy animals, am I?

You are turning into a crazy raw animal like us.

There just comes a time when the cooked meat becomes truly inferior and diarrhea and pain causing.

It's hearing reports like these that make me wonder why humans even began to eat cooked foods in the first place.  o.O

I have to imagine it was as a way to salvage something that was rotting or by accident. Actually, maybe they were thawing frozen meat in the winter?

I'm beginning to think maybe I like the salt and spices on cooked meat more than the actual cooking.

Also, I'm thinking it's the cooked fat more than the protein that my body dislikes. Cooked lean meat doesn't give me the bad feeling so much, it just doesn't seem to digest as well (I'm reluctant to go fully raw). Along the same lines, tallow makes me feel bad but I can eat twice as much equivalent raw suet and feel like i've eaten nothing at all.

I feel intoxicated from cooked meat, I would describe the effect as being similar to alcohol. It also sits in my stomach uncomfortably, but no scary reactions so far during the few times I ate it.
