For her book Slaughterhouse, Gail Eisnitz, chief investigator for the Humane Farming Association (HFA),

Given the attitude many PETA types have for faking stuff I stopped reading right there.

Hmm, according to [...] our earliest known ancestors ate mostly plants.  

Might be right, but they were not human beings as we think about it now They were apes who managed to walk on 2 feet.  I would say, that Homo erectus was the first to control fire and started to eat grilled, cooked etc. meat regulary. So he started to beat his meat 1.5 mill years ago. During that time till now, human mankind regulary ate meat. 

Therefor I do not accept the argument, that our ancestors ate mostly plants. How far does you go to define ancestors? apes, fish, bacteria?

just my 2 eurocent.

I looked all the way back through the hominid family tree.  Though they are not members of homo sapiens, they share many of our major characteristics (sociable, bipedal or semi-bipedal, complex tools, art).
