Intermittent fasting .... it was probably a normal way for us to live as humans hundreds of years ago when food wasn't so freely available like today.
I grew up poor as an Indigenous Canadian with my family in the north. I remember being a kid and just going on breakfast (which was always oatmeal) and lunch with no other meals during the day .... and it was just normal.
You wanted a snack late at night? No, there's nothing to eat, go play with your siblings and go to bed.
And as teens and adults, if we were travelling on the land and moving from place to place for hunting/trapping/fishing, it was normal to go a day without food just to get work done on time.

Though I sympathize with those in that position, it's good to know the book didn't lie.

I've seen this first hand with an uncle various times when we're waiting for something or someone before a meal. It's an irritability that comes out. Some people are more prone to it than others.
