With a few exceptions like fatass Americans lol, the largest part of a human being's diet is a cereal: wheat, rice, corn, and other plants cultivated over countless generations to be really good at feeding us. The thing is, cereals are all descended from grasses, so if we them more than any other single food product, could we be considered grazing animals?
Well, gee. That explains why that ewe over there is so hot.
If we make residential homes more than any other building construct, could we be considered insects?
If we indulge in sex for more pleasure than any other physical activity, could we be considered dolphins?
If we are more concerned with productively serving a hierarchical system and working for mere short-term paychecks, could we be considered ants?

Grazing animals eat grass, they don't eat the seeds of grass. Mostly it's birds and insects that do that.

Don't try to get in the way of our meme machine. We're doing SSSSSSSSSCIENCE here.
Well I guess we're ants then. 3 out of 5 analogies apply.

The paleolithic diet is not as heavy in grains as we make use of. Therefore, the modern diet is the aberration and should be changed. The paleolithic diet made use of grains in only limited amounts. We make use of them so heavily only because of the efficiency of harvesting grains in our industrialized agriculture.
But no, only a fucked-butt retard would think we're grazing animals as a result.
Humans, like rats, eat anything.

Let us not conflate "is" with "ought."
When we look around the world at hunter-gatherer societies that DO eat something close to the "paleolithic diet," what sort of life expectancies are we seeing? Let's examine, for example, the Jivaro Indians of Brazil. How long do they tend to live? Do they tend to be as healthy as modern Westerners?
Americans actually are bigger grain consumers than most of the world. Omnivore's Dilemma, bitches.
