Mammals have canine teeth/cuspids https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canine_tooth
edit: I didn't change the quoted picture, weird.
Yes not like these we don’t.
So in the sense for this conversation unless you think your teeth can literally slice through flesh and are actually designed to separate flesh from bone. The way say a wolf.
Like Crocodile Dundee you don’t have Canines or incisors. These are canines and incisors.

I know a few vegans. Most of them have chosen this 'lifestyle' beacause it is trendy. They preffer to take pictures of super-amazing-expensive-vegan dishes in 'best restaurant in the city' and upload them to social media everyday. They care about facebook likes more than their health imho.
On the other hand the true vegans got my huge respect if they really follow their food habits. I probably just do not have luck to cool ppl.
You sound like a little kid that needs to be told by their parents *if Billy jumped off a bridge, would you?* Sorry, the defining feature of humans is that we can choose our own path due to our genetics and figure out what's best for ourselves instead of just mimicking everything else to figure it out.
Humans are omnivores, and we don't hunt with our teeth...

Out teeth are setup so we can eat both plants and meat easily unlike true herbivores or carnivores which can really only eat 1 type.
It's a difficult topic, most people get quite deffensive about it. Personally i believe it can be healthier than a healthy omnivirous diet but i also think it in the begining can be a more difficult diet to master. It depends heavily on what approach you're taking with it. Personally i've found the transition to be quite exciting, mostly because i've been forced to open my eyes to a much greater variety of foods than ever before.
YES you need to supplement, B12 especially. But it should be noted that B12 deficiency is just as common amongst non-vegans as vegans.
My impression is that the reason why supplementation is so quickly spoken about in relation to vegans, is because going into a vegan diet requires planning. It requires some thought compared to if you've been used to just eating without thinking what you're eating.
I'm not going to say 100% if i find veganism to be definitively more healthy, but i can say one of the benifits i've reaped so far is that i no longer catch stuff like influenza. I can still feel if i have the bacteria in me, but it never reaches the point where i'm unable to work. This didn't happen to me before i went vegan and as such it's hard for me not to see it as being the cause.
Veganism is sadly a victim to a lot of misinformation and propaganda, but i don't think attacking people for being vegan OR non-vegan is going to lead to anything productive. Be open to change, think about what you're eating and don't let things get to your head.
