When the world's great scientific thinkers change their minds

Like #9:
So you had heard humans emerged because they began to eat meat?

I used to think that human origins were explained by meat-eating. But I now think that cooking was the major advance that made us human. Cooked food allows our guts, teeth and mouths to be small, while giving us abundant food energy and freeing our time.
