I'm guessing our "hairy ancestors" learned about lobster, prawn and raw
egg from watching birds and mammals that knew how to fish and forage.
They saw them eating oysters, crayfish, prawns... and probably raw bird
eggs. It makes sense.

Of course I'm sure there were a lot of "Oh, those berries look tasty!"
moments going on. Oh no, don't eat those!
