> [Speaking of Joe Rogan…](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BUL78hbkLA). Is our meaty diet part of the very thing that makes us human?
Haven’t watched the video yet (I’m listening to music, and the video will interfere), but I seem to remember reading somewhere that the ability to cook food, and particularly a meaty diet, enabled us to get more nutrients out of food, which in turn enabled the energy-hungry large brain to evolve. If this is so, perhaps veganism makes you stupid, which makes you less likely to eat meat, which makes you even stupider, etc. 😃

So who’s standing up for plant rights?
