That said, humans have always eaten some cooked food. So, too, do many land animals; and so did our human ancestors. How? Largely in the form of roasted grasshoppers or other small critters caught in forest fires and brushfires.
This is hilarious. Is he really saying that a primary source of food for our ancestors were insects roasted in wild fires?

That honestly might be one of the silliest things I've ever read.

What did our ancestors do when there weren't any wildfires? Also, I'm pretty sure insects don't really just get "roasted" in wildfires. They would get completely incinerated if anything.
