Re: Diet and Teeth Again

'As for the other, I think he is saying that chewing tough food
stimulates
jaw growth and if children were chewing tough food from the earliest
days of
chewing then the jaw would grow to its potential and we'd have room for
our
wisdom teeth. A finding like this would take all the blame off
agriculture
and spread it around a bit more to "other things". "

Yeah, I think chewing grain, even in porridge, isn't quite like the
bakery bread we get today. My guess would be cooking would generally
make foods available that would be too tough without cooking. Meat,
also, doesn't always get more tender with cooking., especially if I'm
doing the cooking.
