NPR goes primal page

In case this hasn't been posted yet, NPR covered the dawn of prehistoric meat-eating today. This is an easily digestible (har har) overview of why meat and cooking is good, and why vegetarianism and raw foodism might not be so good.

Even better than the other articles are the comments for this article:

"Was this story courtesy of the beef industry? Eating some lean meat like fish is good, but eating fatty red meat every week is not good and it is one of the leading causes of high blood pressure, heart attacks, cancer, and obesity."

I would have thought that comments on the NPR page would provide a teeny weeny bit more in-depth analysis than that.

They have been running a whole series this past week. It's been very good.

This was another comment, dude can't even spell protein...

"In fact, our brains need glucose. Meat does not contain carbohydrates and therefore cannot provide glucose.
