150,000 years ago, prehistoric people tamed the fire and began to cook. It was a giant leap, in fact a real revolution, the first of the great changes in the history of human nutrition that significantly co-shaped the entire history of the human race. Cooking was important not only because it changed the diet, but also earlier methods of preparation, such as drying, had the same purpose, but also because it changed the original society and provided it with new opportunities to organize life. Early humans shared their lifestyle closely with other primates. It was the cooked food, however, that created a sense of difference from other creatures of the animal kingdom. The door of cognition then opened, the power of food and its forms began to work. The awareness that food is not just something that strengthens the body, but can have magical effects on mood and even on events, has evolved and strengthened over millennia with evolutionary precision. Food-eating rituals and various taboos were forms of controlling and influencing the magical, the supernatural.
