What? There is evidence of cooking going back half a million years. There is evidence that our ancestors have been eating meat for at least 2.5 million years.

And the vast, vast majority of fruits and vegetables in our current diets didn't come around in their current forms until the last 15,000 years or so.

And our closest living relatives (chimps) also eat meat...raw.

Vegan - comes from an old Indian word meaning "inept hunter".

FTFY

I think that's a great idea. Go with it

Fricking vegans. You eat how you want and I'll continue to eat as much meat and dairy as I damn well please.

I am a fricking carnivore. Seriously, if I go a few days without eating meat I feel like my body is lacking something.

What purpose does chickens have if we didn't eat them? They are birds that can't even fricking fly..

And cows.. They are big and stupid. What would be a cow's purpose if we didn't eat beef? You don't see lions and tigers trying to go vegan..

I don’t fully agree with Vegans, but vegetarianism isn’t too bad. I know some people that only eat seafood as their meat. They seem to be ok. I could go without eating beef and chicken.

We have now defunct organs that aided in the process of digesting raw meat. They became irrelevant through evolution after man developed ways to cook meat.

Which was the time of the caveman.
