Last week I was in a bar in Durango listening to a young granola eater expounding the virtues of being a Locavore. From Wikpedia, "Those who prefer to eat locally grown/produced food sometimes call themselves "localvores" or locavores." She went on further to extol the virtues of organic produce etc. which is something I don't subscribe to. I told her that my Wife and I eat very little store bought meat and that the majority of our meat is "Organic". She brightened up immediatley and asked where we purchased our organic meat. I told her we didn't purchase it, we hunted it and killed it. We even cut and wrap it ourselves. This was a shocking idea to her and pretty much ended the conversation.
My question is what should we, who hunt, kill, and gather our food, call ourselves? I'm struggling with a good vore. Huntavore doesn't quite fit for me since we also grow and gather much of our veggies. Come up with a term, let's coin one to describe ourselves.
