    Like the first person who ate an egg or an oyster was a brave soul.

      My favorite is the guy or gal who first discovered cheese

      The first step is the guy or gal who decided … “hmmm … I drank milk from my mom, why not the cow? Or the goat?” … a few hundred years go by … “oh no, the milks gone bad inside this animal stomach I’ve been using as a stone age water bottle … and oh look, it’s all turned into ugly lumps … I wonder what they taste like?”

        I never understood how people started using rennet to make cheese. That makes so much sense, thank you for making that comment

          I never understood it either until I read about some research that suggested that this is probably the way the first people accidentally made the first cheese

      It’s not like humans were dropped on earth a la hitchhikers’ guide to the galaxy, we evolved from animals that already ate most of this stuff
