    Same for me. I went to the Potting Shed in Beverley for a cheeky pint, grabbed some (or what i thought were just) peanuts. Turns out just touching a brazil nut makes my head expand, turn purple and try to kill me. Fortunately I only lived opposite at the time so I managed to get home, the Mrs gave me lots of Piriton, called an ambulance, got blue lighted to HRI, lots of injections, some worked - some d
    I'm in the same boat. I requested an EpiPen but the Dr was very "Meh" about me having one. He said to keep some Piriton to hand.
    Got to admit. Not the response I expected

    Simply not true.
    Our brain size was on a trend increasing in size way before evidence of use of fire; part of our evolution away from other primates.
    Some humans started eating at least some animal flesh since maybe up to 2 million years ago; most likely much more recently (as in hundreds of thousands of years ago). Some regions / populations never took to eating animal flesh or at least very little ... yet their 'biology' (brains, gut, intestines, teeth, etc) has also evolved as humans!! Non-, or very little-, meat eaters are not some separate lineage with their own biology like different sized brains, intestines, etc etc (jokes aside).
    It's only in the recent evolutionary 'blink of an eye' that we saw meat, dairy & related consumption anything like we see today.
    Naturally, human's 'biology' has evolved over the many millions of years since we started separating from other primates, which is why we are a different sub-species of primate (just as the 'biology' of each other sub-species of primates has evolved with small differences), but nothing like to that of a carnivore or near carnivore - impossible in 'only' the few thousand years, only a couple of thousand for some regions, that many regions / populations have been more frequently eating meat; and again, the 'biology' (guts, intestines, teeth, brains etc) of non-meat eating populations has also evolved in the same way!!.
    Perhaps more importantly, and surely beyond dispute, is that we are not designed for the current meat, dairy & related overload habits and the way it is typically produced - it would be impossible for us to have evolved that quicky in just a few decades (or even a few hundred years) of evolution.
    Anyway, I won't bore with more debate on a 'new owners' thread.

    Vegetarian, vegan and raw diets can be healthy — likely far healthier than the typical American diet. But to continue to call these diets "natural" for humans, in terms of evolution, is a bit of a stretch, according to two recent, independent studies.

    Eating meat and cooking food made us human, the studies suggest, enabling the brains of our prehuman ancestors to grow dramatically over a period of a few million years.

    Although this isn't the first such assertion from archaeologists and evolutionary biologists, the new studies demonstrate, respectively, that it would have been biologically implausible for humans to evolve such a large brain on a raw, vegan diet and that meat-eating was a crucial element of human evolution at least 1 million years before the dawn of humankind.

    Can't they be bought over the counter? Not saying you should have to but if it made you feel safer?

    Bloody hell
    My Son in Law has severe nut allergy and went into shock at ours
    To be fair he politely went to keel over in another room! (Couldn’t breathe as throat swelled)
    His fault though as he ordered the take away!

    After one Christmas, I nicked a load of chocolates from a box on top of the telly as toddled off to primary school. I realised straight away that the first one I'd put in my mouth was a toffee brazil, so spat it out. I thought nothing more of it, but I'd obviously touched it and half way through the morning after leaning my face on my hand while slouching on my desk (as you do), I turned into The Elephant Man.

    Surprised no-one has worked it out. Acun IIicall signed a 54 day exclusivity clause when he paid his deposit. That runs out a week on Monday.
    If it's going to happen, and it is, it won't be long.

    OK, rude not to at least briefly reply :emoticon-0112-wonde:emoticon-0105-wink:
    Yep, as said earlier ... "... there are conflicting hypothesis and studies".
    And here's another one ... https://erc.europa.eu/projects-figu...,cerebral cortex, the outer part of the brain. Possibly (likely?) a gene 'mutation' (bringing favour of natural selection).
    Early humans could not have eaten raw animals, beyond insects, bugs and the like (which is not in dispute); even our basic instincts tell us that much.
    Cooking enabled all sorts of foods to be cooked, not just animal flesh, and made it easier to sustain increased calorie intake and I doubt anyone would argue it contributed then to our continued growth & development. But whole populations have continued to eat little to no meat, or in some cases seafood rather than (land animal) meat, yet with the same body, brain, biological development as (land) meat eaters. Meat alone cannot be the factor.
    Again, it absolutely isn't 'natural' for humans to eat animals & animal produce in the way we do now; evolution has not had time to prepare us, and we pay the price.
    New owner announced yet?

    Like LBIA I conduct my own research and don't rely on what the MSM tell us. And my extensive, cross referenced, exhaustive, in depth research tells me that a new owner has not been announced yet. But may be some time in the future.
