#diet trends are always so dumb.

Like the paleo diet, which claims eating raw meat and #food is good for you, and the way it's meant to be.

Cooking food is why humans became humans.

It takes a HUGE amount of calories to digest raw food, which is important before food stability.

A brain uses a GIANT amount of calories, so by cooking food, calories were made available to develop a larger brain.

So it's less a paleo diet, and more a Homo Erectus diet.
