Hunter-gatherer groups prioritize eating organ meats first after a hunt.

“when they cut the liver out um one of the guys literally just it was so cool to see he just gingerly had the liver and he placed it on a rock and they were just like saving it it was clearly very specially regarded”

“the next step was to basically immediately throw the rest of the organs straight under the fire just straight under the coals and then after a couple minutes they took that off and chopped them all up put everything else either directly on the fire or on sticks on the fire and then ate the the muscle meat last and then after that like i guess it wasn't last the last thing they would do is take all the little bits bone skull everything and we would scrape every single little piece off crush the bones suck the mirror out every joint surface and anything that basically would it would have gone past and broke their teeth had they tried to do more they gave to the dogs”

“the guts so anything where the poop is that goes to the dogs and the rest goes to humans including the stomach the liver the spleen the pancreas the eyeballs the brains and all the tendons and connective tissue”

“the tongue smashed over the opposite and then used a little bit of a stick to defeat us some of the brains which were like sort of like scrambled eggs is that like really rich it was like a mix between like a pate in scrambled eggs warm uh incredible”

“the hadza and saw that so many of the things that we really believe to be true are being played out in real hunter gatherer cultures the odds are some of the last hundred gatherers left on the planet and they too favor meat and organs”

“and then the meat um they they cut up into strips and they hang from the trees around their homes uh their houses and that that dries that out because it's a very dry hot climate there and then they just sort of throw a trunk on the fire and eat it uh for you know but i will say that there's still you know the women still go out gathering guys will still go out and and even you know even though that they just got the zebra they'll still hunt the next day and you know kind of things don't change in terms of their forging efforts very much i haven't noticed we actually have an analysis kind of working on that but um in process right now it doesn't look like they changed very much but they definitely do enjoy having the meat to meet in the trees for a few days and when i was with them they ate the organs first as well we were lucky enough and i felt very privileged to be able to share a little bit of baboon kidney and heart and liver and then the next day some baboon brain with them”

“uh that goes pretty quickly and then the meat um they they cut up into strips and they hang from the trees around their homes”

“we were lucky enough and i felt very privileged to be able to share a little bit of baboon kidney and heart and liver and then the next day some baboon brain with them”

“you know they when we when we would hunt the organs were the first thing we would eat as well as and and that was consistent they would eat the organs always first i think probably because the organs spoil more quickly than the muscle meat”

“whether we're talking about the heart the liver the spleen the pancreas the testicles the brain these were the organs these were the foods that the hadza absolutely treasured they treated them like gold they were shared among the tribe but the lion's share of these organs went to the hunters that were successful in the kill and they were distributed and savored among all”

“they killed the goat by like suffocating it and then they cut its neck and they drained all the blood which they saved every bit of the blood that they could and they made a stew out of the blood and all the organs”
