Ray Mears / WOODLAND Part 1/5

Ray Mears - http://www.raymears.com/ Woodlore - BBC - RAY MEARS WILD FOOD - WOODLAND - For our ancestors, Autumn would have been the last chance to gather food before winter stole much of it away. Nuts are an obvious source of stored energy. Ray travels to the island of Colonsay in Scotland to investigate the remains of thousands of charred hazelnuts which date back to the Stone Age.

@Banchorian since i wrote that i have changed my entire outlook on Gordon and think he is awesome

[Banchorian]

@coolrunnings1021 I have had the pleasure of meeting both of them, and they are both highly intelligent and interesting people. So I don't agree.

[WTFonlinegamer]

he talks fast your friend

[AdventureSworn]

Gordon is epic... he totally LOOKS like an English paleo-ethno botanist.

Those acorns sound good.

[MAGirlable]

Is this the Forest of Dean?

[PseudoHuman16]

I just want to ask a question, maybe someone here has the answer. But if you put the acorn in the water for the toxins to wash out wouldn't that remove a lot of fat and nutritions as well?

[ObiWanGinobiliTopFan]

@ArronTattersall Exactly. And they should get on with ceasing to cut down trees anywhere. There are alternatives to using wood for for all its uses; hemp is super-strong and can be used to make pretty much anything that they make out of wood. Deforestation makes the Earth ill and it makes us ill; we need the trees to breathe properly and they take the trees away and give us pollutants in our air to breathe instead. Somehow that's not a satisfying tradeoff...

Hey Ritchie, thanks for the upload hope you and your family have a great Christmas.

[coolrunnings1021]
