This makes a great deal of sense to me. Our ideas about which #foods and methods of preparation are tasty vs. disgusting are *deeply* cultural, even in today's relatively homogenized world.
Much more so when our #ancestors lived in widely separated groups, in vastly different environments, and making use of whatever they could get was the only alternative to #starvation. Humans are the omni-est of #omnivores, and we assign cultural significance to practically everything we do.
Also, I'm always just happy to pass on any news that demonstrates how much the modern idea of the "#paleo diet" is bullshit. That's a pretty strong preference on my part, but I don't claim it as a cultural universal. 😉

In fairness, I should add that I do know people who have found certain aspects of the #paleodiet work well for them. Weight loss, lower blood sugar, etc. Okay: I think the ideal #diet is very much an individual thing, and people who are measurably healthier when they eat a certain way should absolutely eat that way! But when it becomes an #evangelical #religion, it ceases to have any possible medical value.
