Title: Big Strong teeth

I read things about similarities of Neanderthals and Eskimos. Both were said to have big strong healthy teeth, and Strong jaws from eating raw meat.

Well, the argument is usually that eating cooked-food led to weaker jaws, though there are other theories such as bigger brains leading to weaker jaws, due to alignment/space etc.

Interesting.., I also read they had healthy teeth because of the small amount of sugar the Eskimos consumed.
