The food wars
The big problem is that food choice has serious commercial value and that opens the door to directed exploitation. What makes it worse is that there is multiple variables to play with. Convincing the mass market has a finite price and can be used to oversell a benefit which we all recognize, but to also displace an inconvenient competator. I personally missed that manipulation until recently myself and also do not know at all just how bad it is.

Our Ancestral lineage pre Stone Age.
This is a seriously useful repost on our ancestral DNA. Understand that we had potentially a large number of clearly separate antecedents quite able to be bred. Humanity had a lifeway that actually encouraged exactly that. Hunting bands were surprised and over run. This meant that the males and children were killed and consumed outright, while the females were clearly bred. Then once our particular lineage began to truly expand, numbers naturally overwelmed all other types. Recall what has happened to first nations in the USA.
