Highly sceptical of this if we're talking about the non-animal part of the diet. Hadza ate only 4 non-animal foods, which is much less than what's available at a supermarket. Hunter gatherers would've had a more diverse diet when it came to meats, eating the entire animal including most organs, but that's more cultural than what's specifically available at the supermarket (it's pretty easy to get organ meat at the supermarket and especially the butcher, but most people don't opt-in).
