9/27 the cooking age

In the cooking age, Richard Wrangham discusses how fire and human has changed humans today. He in interviewed by Elisabeth Townsends which he argues about fire and using it to cook makes us who we are today. Fire was not used by humans which made it harder to eat food because our ancestors had different body types. Wrangham mentions the earth oven which is a whole in the ground they used to cook food. Just like today men expected women to have their food made before they got home regardless if they have a successful day hunting or not which relates to humans today because men expect food when they get home from a long day of work.
