Wisdom Teeth

If wisdom teeth used to be for meat and other hard food why do they come out so late at 17-25 years of age, wouldn’t it make more sense for them to come in earlier since our ancestors still needed to eat those hard foods during their adolescence

Skull/ jaw isn’t big or developed enough to come any earlier. As it is, they don’t properly fit for many people.
