Mushmouth

Ever wonder why braces are so prevalent? It’s the damn stove. New Scientist reveals that
"We’ve evolved to eat mush," agrees paleoanthropologist Bernard Wood also of George Washington University, but not involved in this study. "We’re a pretty puny bunch, really, with small teeth and small jaws," he says. "If we couldn’t get the foods we like, and we ever had to adapt quickly, we might be in a terrible mess because our teeth aren’t equipped to cope with anything very substantial."
So of course, since most people won’t go back to carving off huge hunks of animal flesh and tearing into it like underfed lions, it looks like evolution is going to make us even worse.
