Luckily, you won't need to eat a pig to find that out..
And now there was no doubt that the trees were really moving - moving in and out through one another as if in a complicated country dance. ('And I suppose,' thought Lucy, 'when trees dance, it must be a very, very country dance indeed.')

it is not naturally primal for humans to eat pigs and other mammals

Fresh mett has been a favorite of humans ever since their became bipedal. If it weren't for meat eating primates we wouldn't even have flutes! :boggle:

depends on how raw.
i think what you had in mind here is derivative primal.
true primal is biting bits off the living creature.

You're contradicting yourself.

Music is a basic function of human societies. Just imagine going to an early human sacrifice where there was no music, pretty boring I suspect.

Their contributions go far beyond flute melodies. Sherried Lamb Kidneys, no jelly required! Music and good food! That's the stuff of life! :pint:
