Why not try? What it turns out to be the new sliced bread?

How did early humans figure out which foods were good to eat, and others not so much (as in deadly)? Or more complicated involving processes such as how did they figure out drying then crushing certain seeds makes flour which then mixed with water (undrying what was just dried, completely illogical) and then baked becomes bread?

So yeah, sometimes somebody just has to go there. 1 in a million could be the win (don't laugh - that's better odds than the lotto).
