They ate what they could find growing (wild plants) and what they could catch (small animals, fish). We still eat plants and animals, but most of what we eat now is raised for that purpose, and not a product of the hunt.

Early humans likely consumed a diet of fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and animal protein obtained through hunting and gathering. Today, our diets vary greatly depending on culture and availability of food, but they often include processed foods, sugar, and grains in addition to fruits, vegetables, and animal protein. The modern diet tends to be higher in calories, refined carbohydrates, and saturated fats compared to early human diets.

∙ 11y agoEarly hominids ate fruit like berries, roots, nuts, and animal flesh. A variety of early hominids cooked meat, among them the Denisovans, Neandertal, and Homo floresiensis (the "hobbit" people of Indonesia).
Modern humans from a few thousand years ago snacked on small fruits like crab apples, chokecherries, grapes, plums, pomegranates, and grains like barley and wild rice. Many of the things we eat today, like big tasty apples, bananas, and such did not exist back then.
