raw meat is the stupidest meme ever. there's a reason that the smell of meat getting charred on the grill is so intriguing, it's because it makes it more nutritious and gives us the ability to gain the most energy possible from the meat. as some other posters mentioned, scientists believe that harnessing fire and being able to predigest meat and starches through cooking gave us the caloric excess necessary to gradually develop more complex brains and engage in deep abstract thought. cooking your food is part of what makes you human, literally.
