Examining cut marks on animal bones revealed that Neanderthals living just 70km apart were choosing different animals to eat, or different cuts of meat from those animals. One group had a wider taste in meat, whilst another preferred their food to be dried or more rotten. This latter type of food is harder to prepare and so leaves more cut marks. <a href="https://arstechnica.com/science/2025/07/local-cuisine-was-on-the-menu-at-cafe-neanderthal/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://arstechnica.com/science/2025/07/local-cuisine-was-on-the-menu-at-cafe-neanderthal/</a>
