Now this columns says the diet of our hominid ancestors was PRE-agriculture and PRE-hunting.

After looking at the 'good' diet, I've decided to die early because I can't (and won't) spend the time to find enough ants, roaches, etc. to eat. What about you?

Back then they didn't spend their spare time online. :'D They basically ate all the time, were opportunistic feeders, and were on the move a lot. Some claim that the division of labor between the genders started because of the need for someone to be awake all the time -- men nocturnal, women diurnal. Wives prefer sex at bedtime, men prefer it upon waking -- another artifact of that time? ;')

Could it be that one of the primary staples of the caveman diet was..............caveman?

I had trouble finding "the good diet" in all that mishmash. Where did you find it? Was there a list of healthy caveman foods in there?
