This is very incorrect.

First point to make which many don't seem to understand is that canines aren't meant to chew meat. That's what our molars are for, which let it be known look nothing like the molars of herbivore (pic related). Canines are meant to latch onto preys, which humans didn't need given their hunting tactics.

Also, your ideas about cooking are wrong. The most important thing to understand is that the domestication of fire predates modern man, dating as far back as Homo Erectus. Modern humans evolved with fire and thus evolved a metabolism meant to digest cooked meat. Cooking meat is not an artificial process, it's an important part of human evolution. In fact, the reason why we evolved to cook meat was to power our brains, which are very demanding in energy. Cooking meat allowed this larger brain to develop by breaking down the protein in meat and making them easier to absorb.

Well then use proper scientific facts. Humans are not herbivores. This picture is what herbivore teeth look like.

Don't forget that the domestication of fire predates modern man, dating at least as far as Homo erectus. Humans have evolved with fire, and one might ask why we would need fire in African climates. The most likely explanation is to cook meat so as to breakdown its proteins and digest it quicker.
