If, after or during the evolutionary millions of years for the ape species, if any of them became meat eaters, it is very likely that they ate the meat raw as is the case of all carnivorous animals. So then even if by whatever chance early humans discovered how to make fire, what would compel them to cook their food, if they were accustomed to eat their food raw like the other animals? Even if by some accident they burnt the meat, most meats without seasoning like salt, still tastes just as bad as raw meat, unless they knew specifically to cook the fatty meat of certain particular animals that has plenty of fat. Also, why would they hunt to kill any animal when they have no natural ability to do so in the same manner as carnivorous animals do with their teeth and claws ? Obviously they would have to utilize and develop tools to hunt and kill
