People still eat them.

I guess alligators are giant water lizards.

My poor eyesight, before squinting, read the title as:

“First evidence that ancient humans ARE snakes and lizards is unearthed in Israel”

My first thought was this was a slur on Israel.

My second thought was this could well-explain where Democrats come from.

They ate snakes and snails and puppy dog tails!

The other white meat. With rice as a side, not a bad meal. A bottle Franks reds sauce (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DWqgNlfzOs) is a plus factor.

[Deaf Smith]

Thus how the phrase Lizard Breath came into our language.

Hi.

By that time fire was cooking meat.

So, rattlesnake (yum), frog legs and alligator tail would be a delicacy.

I’m guessing of course.

Well, they say that humans originated in Africa, and then emigrated to the rest of the world. These must have been the Chinese. They must have spent some time in the Middle East before moving further east.

They found an ancient piece of linen with some characters written on it. When they translated the inscription it simply said “Ranger”.

“First evidence that ancient humans ate snakes and lizards is unearthed in Israel”

Why wouldn’t they eat snakes and lizards? Humans are omnivores, we eat anything including bugs. Who approved this stupid thesis project?

[Repeal The 17th]

It is my belief that “early humans” ate whatever they could get their hands on,
including each other if it came down to survival.

I guess this made him a Future Snake Eater, uh, PAST Snake Eater...

[Bull Snipe]

anything this side of granite is food for humans.

What do glass lizards taste like? Just asping for a friend.

[Bob434]

Indians ate bark in the winter to survive- lizards woulda seemed like a thanksgiving meal to hem I’m sure

I don't know if Chicago's radical Mayor Light-in-the-Loafers eats snakes or lizards or not, but there is strong facial evidence that her stone-d age ancestors did.

She has the face of an iguana.

Good God! And to think somebody probably got paid real money for this “revelation”. OF COURSE THEY ATE SNAKES AND LIZARDS! They ate any damn thing they could find.

[higgmeister]

Spiders too?

If that's what it takes.

Fired Lizard on a stick has been at every state fair forever.... : )

When you’re hungry, you eat anything that’s slightly slower and/or dumber Than you.

Which explains vegetarians.
