That only means that if we wanted to chew meat we could, but has no emphasis on whether it is a required part of our diet.
I.E. Chimpanzees.

Hmmm... interesting, though Gorillas are no doubt some of the most intelligent creatures on this planet, yet they are strictly vegetarian.
There is nothing to say that more complex thinking animals require more protein for their systems to function fully, the only reason an animal would require more protein is if it was an intregal part of its genetic make up, such as a strictly carniverous animal.
Your body will only process a certain amount of protein, the rest will either be dumped or will sap calcium from your bones, so requiring a large amount of protein for the human diet is a major misconception.
An animal's "intelligence" has nothing to do with its requirement for meat, it only means that it can discover more complex ways to overtake other animals during years of evolution when there is a shortage for any other kinds of food, such as plant matter.
Human beins were once strictly vegetarian, the only reason they began eat meating is because they developed the tools to do so, and for environmental reasons such as the ice age when plant matter was not prolific.
If anything, man's ability to factory farm animals for food is only an example of its true selfishness and lack of compassion.
It's funny how when we speak of intelligence, and complexity we are only speaking in terms of ourselves which is no measuring stick. We see intelligence as somehting that improves our lives only, which means nothing when you destroy a plantet and all the other inhabitants that dwell on it, that's simply carelessness and selfish disregard, not intelligence.
