Well, you can actually measure the effects that the Paleo diet has on biomarkers, so it isn't nearly as subjective as dating norms..

Given how controversial the various diets are, even between nutritional specialists, I'm not sure it can be claimed as less subjective than dating habits.

Nutritional claims are as fragmented as it comes. Plant based vs Paleo vs Ketogenic vs whatever. All with supporting research! The only commonality most of these share is: refined sugar is a plague.
For the record, I think those sorts of evolutionary histories are usually poorly supported anyway, so there's a double layer of nonsense here; you can speculate a lot about how our prehistoric ancestors behaved, and then modulate whether or not your speculated behavior seems good or bad, so any argument can be justified in some direction with appeals to our evolutionary past.
