Worse, we did develop a sympathetic vomiting response. It makes a lot of sense with us being communal eaters. If you buddy is puking up the communal meal maybe you’d better get rid of it before it gets you too.
Tangentially, I think the capitalist encouragement of hurriedly eating alone so that you can get to, from, or back to work faster instead of sitting down to socialize over your meal for an hour or so is genuinely the source of many minor eating disorders.
Shit, of all the ways that capitalism has fucked up our society, I hadn’t considered this one. Thanks. I’m going to try to change my perspective on meal times.
