[QUOTE="first14808, post: 1923568, member: 452612"] Ah, Mammoths. That got me thinking about the practicalities of doing a mammoth roast. Thanks to modern technology, we could make a large spit, but it'd still need a lot of cooking. And apparently some people have tried eating mammoth steaks from ones deep-frozen in Siberian permafrost! I think there's a lot of good evolutionary and historical evidence that supports fasting. It's only in relatively modern times that we've had copious amounts of food available (at least in developed countries), which is part of the problem. In our hunter-gatherer past, we'd have needed to balance activity with successful foraging. Much like apex predators I guess in that they need to conserve energy because hunting isn't always successful. Oh.. and thanks to Sean01, I walked home shrugging my backpack. 2 mile walk, nearly 20kg of food, so every little helps I guess. And no real difficulty energy-wise doing that on my OMAD regime, pre-meal. [/QUOTE]
