  On the spectrum of cow to lion we are very far from the lion
Do you seriously not understand that cows are ruminants?

I actually do. My point was that on a spectrum of "apex predator totally tailored for eating meat" and total herbivore able to digest cellulose we are far from both ends.

The gp specifically stated we have "evolved to preferentially run on fatty meat from large game animals" and that is just plain wrong.

How many stomachs do humans have? How much energy do we obtain from fiber?
