Sure, and I assume she has the same attitude to rice as well. It’s the same central thing - humans realising that certain grasses produce grain, that this can be collected and processed, and importantly, cooked, to give a better nutritional result, making people bigger and stronger, making our brains grow, making us realise that staying in one place to cultivate these grains was a better idea than running around the countryside chasing wild animals and foraging for fruits, thereby leading to villages and towns so on and so forth.

The division we have comes from the Normans and them fancying everything up, so if they ate people, we’d probably have a word for it. Genscarne or something.

There’s actually a bit in lots of cultures history in the transition from hunter-gathering to sedentary farming when everyone got malnourished and stunted for a while, because they’d really nailed the hunter-gatherer thing, but hadn’t fully mastered farming yet.

Once they get the grain coming in though, there’s usually a big population bulge, and the rise of chiefs and kings from the flat egalitarian hunter-gatherer society.

Why is it dangerous for humans to eat other human meat?

Yeah but like eating a leg is probably gonna be alright?

Probably best just to eat children or people with OCD.

Yeah they ate the brain

moral of the story: don’t eat the brain

You sound like you’ve tried to eat someone once and wanted to do some research first

That’s why the sheep and cows got it, isn’t it, because they were bulking up the food with minced up remains of the same species?

Ideal thing to feed a vegetarian animal with low-acid digestion completely designed to only digest grass.

It will be the last mistake you make.
