All carbs are technically and scientifically "bad", there are no good ones, but some are simply less harmful than others.

All carbs get broken down into glucose in the body though, except fructose tends to get deposited as fat rather than used in most people.

A plant based diet in general is not healthy at all. Sure it is better than a high-carb diet of junk food, but not nearly as healthy as a more protein and fat based diet. [/quote]

I see because man ate meat first and then discovered agriculture? so we are more adept at eating meat vs plants?

Let me throw some thoughts at that:

1. Man is the only primate to eat meat. The other may eat insects, small animals, etc. but 95+% of the diet is plant based.
2.  Man doesn't make Vitamin C - carnivores do; we were meant to get this from plants.
3. Man makes cholesterol and carnivores don't; we hold on to it - carnivores do not they actually flush out excess. 
4. Carnivores swallow their food; Man like other herbivores chew their food.
5. Adventist study comparing similar environment and genetics show vegetarian diets are far healthier. 
6. China Study - 750,000 people over 25 years show vegetarian diet is far healthier.
7. Fiber is essential for gut biome. There is 0% of fiber coming from meat.
