Grains are grass. In addition - and my primary problem with the whole paleo fad is with the increase in human population world wide, the amount of land available to 'grass' feed herbivores is shrinking both through human development and climate change. In the United States alone, currently the amount of range animals is the lowest it has been since the 1950s. At the same time, global fisheries are stressed to the point total collapse is a matter of if, not when. Even if you do not think converting the Amazon rain forest to pasture will have a delitorious impact on the global environment, the fact remains the added range land will not be sufficient to allow humanity to adopt a meat heavy diet. Unless the paleo advocates can come up with either a new source of ranges and some radical clean up of our waterways along with a magic way to get fish to reproduce more, the world will be far better off considering diets that use legumes as the primary protien source as the acerage requirement is significantly lower.
