> Our ideal food is plant-based
This is a myth. We eat lots of cereals of course, but the longest living people are definitely ommnivorous and eat a lot of seafood also. We can survive on bread and water, but this is not ideal.
Common people identify plant eaters with primitive, but is a mistake. Specialized plant eaters developped a lot of modern features. We don't have ever-growing teeth. We don't have a gut split in several specialized guts for housing fermenting bacteria. We don't have a sophisticated olfact sense to smell the plants and detect poisonous ones.
