And we don't need to in order to fully digest cereal grains.
>"we have a carnivorous physique and body type"
Humans, like all omnivorous apes, are an odd mix of carnivore and herbivore. We have the abbreviated lumen, but lack the aggressive gastric chemistry of a carnivore. Our dentition is distinctly herbivorous in shape, but the mass of our teeth is insufficient to chew cellulosic material, and we lack the gut to digest it anyway.
The rational conclusion is that we have evolved to eat carefully prepared high-energy easily digestible foods. Which describes domesticated cereal grains very well.
>"There is an evolutionary aspect to it that nothing fattens up then kills americans like grain consumption"
The obesity epidemic certainly owes its spread to the glycemic profligacy of overly-processed grain. It's a bit of a stretch to sum it up by simply saying "grain kills".
