- rbanffy 8mo agoOur sense of smell also evolved in the past couple thousand years. And the further back you go, the hungrier our ancestor will be. I need to get food at the market, not wait for it to fall into a trap or fight it to death.
- linksnapzz 8mo agoIt's not the sarcotesta, the butyric-acid filled dogshit smelling thing, it's the "seed" (it's not really a seed, morphologically as I understand it...), the sclerotesta that's edible.
