This year, 1.3 billion chicken wings were consumed on Super Bowl Sunday. That’s a three percent increase from the previous year. And, it’s enough for every American to have eaten four chicken wings on the day.

Even if you’re keeping to a Paleo diet, you’re not eating the same things your ancestors did. No one is. That’s because what could have been available in a certain area and what was available to most people were two very different things. If you think about just how novel some crops were in different parts of the world, you’d shiver in your shoes – maybe even literally as you might choose to go without food for a while.
