is a safe choice, and this is doubly true if you have to catch and butcher meals yourself. You won't be gored by a broccoli floret, and it’s impossible for a protective mother of a soybean to kick your head in. But for the primates who eat meat, these threats are an unfortunate reality.
Consider the safest meat to obtain — the embryo contained in a prey’s egg. Like plants, eggs can’t flee from predators. Still, they can be hazardous to acquire. If you’re not swooped up by defensive parents, you might be.
