[quote]Pacific Islanders evolved to survive on a minimal diet of plants and fish — not a lot of red meat available on small islands. After millions of years evolving their systems to handle mostly fish as their source of meat, they now have easy access to red and white meat in the form of McDonalds and KFC. … A diet that works best for a Samoan probably won’t work well for an Anglo North American, and vice versa.[/quote]
FYI, humans only got to those islands around 30,000 years ago. That’s not a lot of time to evolve. And their hunter-gatherer ancestors ate plenty of meat. The biggest difference between them and Anglos, I think, is that Anglo ancestors evolved the ability to digest cow milk, because they had domesticated cattle and Pacific Islanders did not.
