Default Who Decided that Food Needs to be Exposed to Fire........

Who Decided that Food Needs to be Exposed to Fire before it's eaten.
With a few exceptions, almost everything we eat is exposed to fire in
some form or other. WHY??????

Ok, I would not want to eat raw meat, but why must we cook (use fire) on
vegetables, fruits, grains, and so on?

Personally, I hate cooking, and cooking is all about exposing food to
fire. Its not the fire that I hate, it's the fact that food burns, gets
stuck to pots and pans, and requires precise timing and control of the
flames. Something I have never been able to get right!

If it was not for restaurants, I'd live on salads and other raw fruit
and veggies.
