I thought meat eating hominids from which we evolved existed 2.5 million years ago, but I'll accept your premise Manic Monkey. Humans have eaten meat long enough to develop the adaptation of producing hydrochloric acid for digestion though, a trait of omnivores and carnivores. How long have high glycaemic foods such as rice, processed wheat flour, and potatoes been a major food group in the human diet? How long have refined omega-6 fats been eaten in the quantities they are today? (Corn oil results from chemical extraction, not pressing).
