But does anyone know about native American primarily all meat diets? Did they ever eat buffalo milk/cheese???
And how do some following a paleoish type dietary regime justify eating butter/cream -- but not cheese??

I think it's easy to get too carried away with doing this "strictly," in the sense of following some plan right down to the letter. Most of us are doing this to make our lives better, not to live according to somebody's theory laid down in a book. If loosely following a paleo plan and adding dairy makes somebody happy and able to realize their health goals, more power (and cheese, and butter, and yogurt) to them. If someone follows Bernstein's but is able to maintain BS while eating tomatoes, great for them!
