      I mean what else are you suppose to do with the old shoes?

      But on a serious note, I do get curious how some of these things were discovered. For example, how did they learn that brains helped tan hides?

          That or my thought was they piled all the stuff in the hide to take back and realized something at that point, either way these thoughts always get me thinking how the Ancients found this stuff out.

        I dunno about your example, but most people throughout history didn’t have the luxury of throwing food away. So yeah your milk is chunky and has blue spots, you eat it or starve.
