The choices we make about who we eat is cultural. It has nothing to do with biology. That's why any talk of the "necessity" of eating animal flesh is balderdash. Saying “we have to eat beef for chicken or turkey for our health" is as arbitrary and ridiculous as saying “we have to eat dogs, cats, and horses for our health. Eating one animal over another has nothing to do with necessity or our physiological makeup and everything to do with the habits we form based on the culture we live in. To the animals, it's all the same.

"To the animals, it’s all the same. Whether they meow, snort, bark, whinny, moo, quack, gobble, hop, fly, swim, or run, they all feel pain, loss, and fear." @joyfulvegan

"Just because we can do something doesn’t mean we should. Just because we’ve always done something doesn’t mean it’s the right thing to do. Once we know better, we can choose better."
