Recently I read an article that said that humans are " cookievores ".
Meaning that humans learned to cook and therefore needed much less
time to eat. Chimps eat about six hours a day in order to get enough
calories.

humans gathered around a campfire near an ancient lake in what is now Israel,
making tools and perhaps cooking food, in the earliest evidence yet found of
the use of fire in Europe or Asia.
