Today's NYTimes has a funny article at:
http://www.nytimes.com/2002/05/28/science/social/28COOK.html

It's in the Science Times section and is called
Cooking, and How It Slew the Beast Within

By NATALIE ANGIER

Among virtually every culture on earth, anything worth doing is best
done over dinner. Bring out a
     nicely braised roast, a hot loaf of bread and a slice of, oh, lemon
chess pie, and rifts can be
healed, pacts sealed, loves revealed. ..........
In the view of Dr. Richard W. Wrangham, a professor of anthropology at
Harvard, the preparing,
cooking and sociable eating of food are so central to the human
experience that the culinary arts may
well be what made us human in the first place.

His work is controversial, however, which is why there
is this article.

It's a funny article because it has all these food puns
in it....
