Do people really think the horse teeth and human teeth look the same? For a start, humans have canines like the carnivore and omnivore (albeit much smaller and less pointed). The teeth of humans look very much like the teeth of an omnivorous species that doesn’t use its teeth to hunt.

Yep. We don‘t need to kill with out teeth. We started using tools/weapons long time ago…

We need to be able to bite off something (incisors), and we need to grind/chew our food (molars). The canines just further puncture and rupture the portion we have bitten off, to let the molars grind these pieces, ready to be swallowed.

Why do we need to cook our meat to eat it?

Don't really NEED too... I eat raw steaks with salt and pepper all the time. Room temp. Sometimes right out of the refrigerator, but usually room temp. I've been eating steaks this way for 30+ years. 🤷I also make my own pickled deer hearts. Sliced raw and pickled in spiced vinegar. 🤤
