‘What were they thinking?’: 20+ Wildest Foods People Still Don’t Understand How Humans Discovered

Even if you were not a fan of history class in school, you have to admit that history and stories about people who lived in the same places we live right now are pretty interesting. My version of history class today as an adult is videos about how people used to get by, mainly explaining small house tasks such as laundry, cleaning, and of course, cooking.

Now the cooking part is the one thing I never got to wrap my head around. I mostly question how people figured out what they can or cannot eat. How does one look at flour and get from it to making bread? How many food items did people combine together to try and make something to eat? How many people hurt themselves while trying to eat something that is completely unedible? So many questions…

I am not the only one with this question, as the subject was asked on AskReddit and a lot of people raised some really interesting points. Scroll down to read the full and funny discussion. After that, click here for a collection of funny Friends memes.
