- trevorkoob 4y agoMakes sense that we have been cooking for a long time. Our intestines look as though they have evolved around an environment of cooked food, and that takes many many thousands of years
- Koshkin 4y agoWell I’m sure other species took advantage of forest fires, too.
- cuttlefisch 4y agoThe article also indicates the fish were cooked at a controlled temperature
- fuzzfactor 4y agoI would estimate they were doing just fine even if they had yet to perfect digital temperature control.
