Only humans are the sole creatures on Earth that cook. The starting point of all cooking is the use of fire. Why do humans use fire? The nutrient absorption rate of raw potatoes is 51%, while boiled potatoes have a rate of 95%. Beef-specific proteins are 4 times more digestible when heated. Good digestion allows for greater energy extraction. Apes chew their food for 6 to 8 hours a day, but humans chew for less than an hour. As a result, the human intestines are only two-thirds shorter than those of apes. In contrast, the human brain is larger. The human brain is the most efficient organ for energy in the body.
