No, the Human Liver did not Evolve
After a spell of target practice with my .44-40 Winchester (same loads for rifle and pistol), I saddled up and rode into town for gun maintenance supplies and ammo. While there, I encountered Russell Watchtower, who heads up the Ministry of Truth at the Darwin Ranch.
We went into the local eatery for lunch. I had burger steak and eggs, and Russ had beef liver with onions. In my childhood days, I couldn't stand liver. My parents let me have a hamburger instead. "I wonder if cannibals eat livers," I mused.

The liver is a multifunction accessory organ to digestion, which means that it is not part of the alimentary canal, but external to it.1 Among other things, it is essential to the healthy functioning of the gastrointestinal and endocrine systems. Introducing digestive juices into the system, liver functions are part of the process of detoxifying and breaking down food components into a form suitable for absorption. Examples of absorbed nutrients are amino acids, mineral salts, fat, and vitamins. These are building blocks for new cells, hormones, and enzymes, as well as an energy source for other processes.
