Humans are omnivores; our digestive system is designed to be able to handle whatever we can get our hands on. Since plants can't run, we evolved on a diet dominated by plants. However, given our natural abilities plus the advantages of intelligence, we are also predators who have gotten to eat meat.

That almost sounds plausible, if evolution were true!

I once heard it explained......
Cows have grinding teeth, they are herbivores,
Dogs have tearing teeth, they are carnivores,
Humans have both types of teeth, they are omnivores.

I guess we were designed to eat all sorts of stuff in moderation.
