What if early humans never ate meat?!
Would are brains be the same!? What if we never wore fur or used animals for labor, how would human civilization be effected todayWww@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
Humans would not be civilised!. They would need to spend all day eating and foraging like gorillas!. And they would have never left the warm climate of Africa without skins for clothing!. And who knows what would have happened if humans did not domesticate wolves, dogs are kinda important!.
Eating meat and particularly bone marrow was important because it provided enough protein for proper brain development!. Good genes won't make you smarter if your brain never develops properly!. There are just not many wild plant protein sources!. And the farmed one have been improved by centuries of cross breeding so they would not be availible!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

There is a lot of evidence that early humans didn't eat nearly as much meat as we think they did!. Our closest relatives, chimpanzees, for example, eat almost entirely plants and insects, with the occassional monkey they catch thrown in!. There was an article on the BBC stating that the development of human brains is due not to meat consumption, but to the consumption of starches: http://news!.bbc!.co!.uk/2/hi/health/698333!.!.!.
If we never wore fur, we likely never would have moved to the colder climates, and remained in Africa and the middle east!.
Of course absolutely none of this has any bearing on what we should do today!. There are many factors behind how we got to where we are, including very bad things, like war, slavery, murder, and exploitation!. If your intention to to try to legitimize abusing animals today (and I'm not sure if it is), you are making a basic mistake in your reasoning!. But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you are a much more reasonable person who was just curious!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Did early humans eat meat!?
No!. Not very likely!.
The evidence of the so-called cave-man era humans are not early humans, they had already migrated away from their ancestral lands etc!. up north to where there was winter, and snow etc!. and harsh weather conditions etc!. There are morons out there that say "Humans have been around for about 10,000 years!." Total bull!. We've been around for much much longer!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I don't really care what early humans did!. I make my own choices about a compassionate, environmentally conscious way to live!.
Judging by the expanding girth of most Americans, cutting down on the meat consumption isn't going to result in mass extinction!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

They would have starved to death unfortunatelyWww@FoodAQ@Com
Then Homo sapiens would have gone extinct!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
