If this is the case then I think that veganism is little more than an exclusive eating club, an elite. But I know we have a broader agenda. Cooking was not invented by those with ecology, nutrition, health and Natural Law in mind. It was invented by our desperate and ignorant prehistoric ancestors. But these people eat cooked meat, not raw flesh.
Humans are fruigivores, animals specialised for fruit eating.
Children should really be breast fed for 7 years in order to develop strong bodies, full jaws, a full set of teeth and effective immune systems. All cooked foods, by their treatment, contain novel hybrid molecules. All raw foods contain molecules whose character is determined by genetics, which evolve at the same speed as we evolve. Cooking creates millions of new substances with each meal. We have no enzymes to fully digest and assimilate these cooked food molecules.
