In my view, aside from posterity’s sake, I’m not interested in what my ancestors had eaten, or had not eaten.
If my ancestors weren’t resourceful enough and had to rely on some vegetation, fruits, berries, and nuts classifying them as omnivores, to what end would I mimic their behavior if I’m resourceful enough to be completely carnivorous without ever having to resort to vegetation?
Given that I derive all the nutrients I need from meats, cheese, eggs, and whatever, can anyone give me one good reason to eat vegetation? Is it only because our ancestors weren’t evolved enough to survive without it? |
