Only journalists that don't know what hunter-gatherers are. The Egyptians ate plenty of bread. They were the ones that figured out how to leaven it. The Otzi iceman was also eating grains. Note he was only 5,000 years ago.

In summary, the use of "ancient hunter-gatherers" in the article is completely wrong.
