Actually, the hominids were originally frugivores/nut-eaters - scavenging for meat came much later.

Right after self-awareness

Actually, "true salad" has been around for a while:

History

In the Middle Ages, after a long winter of salted meats and pickled vegetables, people would be "salt-sick" and starving for spring greens. A pregnant wife's yearning for rapunzel growing in the garden next door inspired the fairy tale of Rapunzel. Popular history asserts that peasants ate more salads than lords, and were the healthier for it, and in fact salads, cooked and raw, included many ingredients that would be "gourmet" today: lovage, burnet, sorrel.
The diarist John Evelyn wrote a book on salads, Acetaria: A Discourse on Sallets (1699), that describes the new salad greens like "sellery" (celery), coming out of Italy and the Netherlands.

And it can be traced back even further in places like Italy/Greece. My point was merely that we were eatin' the greens way longer than we were hittin' up the meat.

I still like the Bud Light "Real American Heroes" radio ad where the salute Mr. Taco Salad Inventor Guy... "You've created an invention that boggles the mind... a 10,000-calorie salad."

Right after self-awareness

There was a theory by Wheeler and Aiello about small guts, big brains - essentially, that a high meat-rich diet lead to bigger brains, and all that that entailed. Pretty nifty. Dunno how dated the theory is now though.

Nope, he's my razzy bear...

I'm allergic to wheat, yeast and cows milk. No bread, cakes, biscuits, choccy, cheese, butter, yogurt...

unless it's soya/goats/sheeps and the only bread I eat is black rye. So I have to find my carbs from somewhere.
