"Wrong. Our teeth, hands and gut are more similar to primates, who gather, chew, digest and thrive on plant foods."

Wrong. Our teeth are made for biting and chewing meat, we have incisors. Very different from monkey teeth.

We don't have hands like monkeys-which are made for swinging on tree branches, we have opposed thumbs. And our digestive system is also very different from Monkeys. Their stomachs are 3 times the size of ours, and their intestines are very different.

Sounds like you've been chewing and swallowing the vegan B.S.

Mankind is a hunter and gatherer, we are omnivores, and always will be. We need proteins, fats and carbs to survive.

No, that's wrong. Our teeth are very similar to Old World monkeys and apes. And even the Platyrrhines (New World monkeys) have similar teeth diversity, but just different numbers.

However, incisors don't necessarily mean hunting, etc. Even the prosimians (e.g., lemurs) who came before monkeys had incisors...but they use them for eggs, hatchlings, digging into bark for insects, etc.
