"Cooking, in effect, took part of the work of chewing and digestion and performed it for us outside of the body, using outside sources of energy. Also, since cooking detoxifies many potential sources of food, the new technology cracked open a treasure trove of calories unavailable to other animals. Freed from the necessity of spending our days gathering large quantities of raw food and then chewing (and chewing) it, humans could now devote their time, and their metabolic resources, to other purposes, like creating a culture."

Pigsy Papas on pigs' bums

DateSunday, March 9, 2014 at 12:35PM

My cousin Kirsty knows a lot about pigs and eating them. She has a blog all about this. We were just chatting on Facebook about an impending trip to a Chinese restaurant which serves lots of offal...

Vicky: Yum yum, pigs bum! (literally)

Kirsty: Apparently they bleach pigs ring holes and pass them off as squid rings in China!!
