The human digestive system was not designed to process raw meat, and there is also the danger of pathogens that can exist in raw meat, yet man existed for thousands of years before the earliest evidence of man using fire to "cook' meat, what were they eating?

9 times out of ten, you contract food poisoning from raw vegetables.

Both commercial industries have huge environmental impacts.

The correct answer is the exact opposite of what you wrote.

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.

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.

That's simply not true at all. A diet consisting of beans, vegetables, and nuts can actually reverse heart disease, lower inflammation in the body, drastically lower your risk of cancer and diabetes, cut your risk of colon cancer in half, and stop osteoporosis from continuing. A vegan diet is about as healthy as you can eat, so long as you eat enough iron rich vegetables, get sufficient sunlight, and if it's totally devoid of meat, taking a b vitamin complex supplement. Regardless, outside isle grocery store shopping should be what everyone strives for.

Watch "Forks over Knives" with an open mind.
