I like how Dr. Jan Kwasniewski (the creator of the "Optimal Diet") contrasts his diet (high-fat, low-carb, moderate protein) with other common ones:

"Pasture"

A high-carb, low-fat, grain and plant-based diet typically eaten by peasants through the ages.

"Piggish"

The standard Western diet that mixes high amounts of carbs, fats and proteins, like the slops given to pigs to fatten them up.
