That was a callback to

> your lack of understanding of k-5 biology

But you'd get that if you had the reading comprehension of a first grader.

Morals have nothing to do with my diet. Morals are subjective, and dietary needs outweigh them.

You're again conflating fruit with vegetation. If you can't understand the difference, there's no reasoning with you. Frugivory can emerge from either carnivorous or herbivorous ancestry, and with primates, typically the former.

If you're not going to cite anything outside of propaganda, there's no sense talking.

Ok fine, what information in elementary school biology are you referring to? You've obviously stated you have no morals when it comes to your diet. I know the difference between a fruit and a vegetable. Not propaganda, facts. I recommend you watch the videos first before saying that.

M8, if you had the reading comprehension of a kindergartener you'd know what I'm referring to, because I literally said it in plaintext.

Anyway, your first "source" is a literal propaganda channel, the second is just a guy's rambling video that doesn't cite sources, but not to worry, the legwork can be done easily to both determine what is factual in the second link, or at least likely factual, and what isn't. What is likely factual, is that if there is cellulase anywhere in the human digestive system, it's in the mouth, which would encourage chewing on leaves to suppress appetite or boredom, which is something we humans do. It is not in the gut, however, and instead cellulose is one of the indigestible carbohydrates we humans only use as fiber and not as a damn thing else. Eating plants as a source of fiber to aid the digestive tract is also something carnivores and omnivores do. Some even constipate themselves with this fiber to hibernate, and there's a carnivorous bear in asia that through human intervention and its own laziness for hunting, currently subsists on what little nutrition it can squeeze out of a plant that used to be just its fiber source.

Regardless, as your sources contained propaganda to begin with, you're not worth anyone's time, as it shows (as if you didn't show already in this thread) you're willing to be dishonest to make your nonexistent point.

I wouldn't say propaganda. If you watched the videos you would see one is a doctor, and the other shows nutrition labels as their example. He actually reads a lot of science literature too. The bacteria to breakdown cellulose isn't just in the mouth, it's also in the digestive tract. I recommend watching the video of the doctor again. I'm not a bear. A bear is a bear. You literally gave the same argument in the video. That's why I linked those videos. Also shame on you for saying I'm not worth anyone's time. You didn't answer my question on what information was provided in elementary biology.

I did. I answered it before you asked. But I guess I can't expect literacy from someone with either Vegan or Glitter in their name, let alone BOTH

I don't know what elementary biology topic you are referring to. We have talked about many topics. Which topic/ topics were you referring to with elementary biology? I already said humans have the ability to digest starch and cellulose. I already said farming practices are immoral and un natural. And you haven't given any arguments that are worth not being Vegan and investigating Veganism.
