    If we were ment to only eat plants we would not be omnivores, and we would be able to digest plant matter better. Wheather it be by evolution or by design, one of our advanages as humans is being omnivorious.
    "Omnivores eat plants, but not all kinds of plants. Unlike herbivores, omnivores can't digest some of the substances in grains or other plants that do not produce fruit."
