Humans are opportunistic omnivores. We may not be carnivores, but we absolutely are not strictly herbivores. We lack the digestive ability to efficiently process plant material. On top of that, we have fucking canine teeth.
I should also add that this is a sore subject for me, it's like when religious people try to use their generally perverted and juvenile understanding of the sciences to prove that there really is a god.

There's also the eye position. Eyes to the front are an evolutionary trait specific to hunters in the class Mammalia. Lower field of view, but greater depth perception and accuracy for hunting.
If we had evolved strictly as herbivores, our eyes would be in the sides of our heads so we could see the carnivores coming.

All I'm saying is this:
Neanderthal, the closest thing we have to a "pre-human" primate had extremely similar teeth to us modern humans, and they were primarily(90%) carnivores.
Just cause you got flat teeth doesn't mean you shouldn't be taking down big game. Me teeth will cut you!
