John Coleman's site is ideological crap. "The Obligate
Fruigivore" is a ridiculous proposition, a nonsense.
There is no essential nutritent found *only* in fruit.
Cats are obligate carnivores; there is no such thing
as an "obligate frugivore". Coleman is not a
scientist, he's a polemicist, and so are you.
