PIKATORE-
I'm ready to debate whenever you are.
MIA-
I didn't say that the veg diet was viable for ancient people. But the existance of suppliments today makes it possible for modern people. In addition, although I take suppliments, to well, suppliment my diet, that doesn't mean that it is impossible to be a veg without them. Anything found in meat and dairy can be found elsewhere, if you look hard enough.

And I fully understand that people are "born omnivore". That doesn't mean we can't change ourselves. That argument for eating meat is probably the one I hear most, and it kills me every time. "It's natural to eat meat". So what? You aren't physically required to kill that cow and eat it. You aren't even really required by your diet, since you can find other sources for your nutrition. Being natural, sticking with your roots, that doesn't mean anything.
RINOA-
Yes, I admit that the diet was poor. You havn't prooved that it was poor simply because it was vegan yet.

And going back to what I said before, who cares if it's natural or not? I'm not big on predetermination or sticking with my roots/instincts very much. If I can look at it, use my brain to see that it could be different, am able to do it differently, and there is no magical force preventing me from making that change because it is "unnatural", then I'll make it in a heartbeat, and not look back.
