om·ni·vore -N, an organism that consumes both plant and animal
I believe I should clarify before I go further with my eating adventure my stance on meat. I'm all for it! Although Webster's does define me as an "Omnivore", I rarely eat salad...or vegetables for that matter. I believe evolution designed me for a purpose. I can walk and run bipedally, use my opposable thumbs to grasp and catch things, dispatch it swiftly with a nice mix of tearing, biting and grinding teeth, and last but not least a nice big brain which allows me to reason and use tools. Conversely, let us take as an example Bos Taurus, in the family Bovidae, subfamily Bovinae, our friend the cow. The cow is a less than nimble, slightly lumbering beast slow moving thus making for easy capture. Couple all that muscle and girth with a tiny little brain and it's just begging me to hit it with a rock and eat it. I scoff at salads. It's not food. It's what "food" eats. Unless specifically "in the mood" for a salad, or unless someone requests me to review a good salad, I probably won"t be regaling you with tales of crisp Romaine and spring greens and how they dance off the tongue. Just wanted to get that straight. If it can be caught and cooked, I want to eat it.
