It's probable that we have evolved to the species we are because we moved away from a vegetarian diet. Animal flesh provides denser, higher quality nutrition, so the brain gained complexity that it may well not have done if we had stayed on a plant-based diet, especially given that many plants are seasonal, so some nutrients were only available for part of the yr, whereas meat can provide a continuous supply.
