Man also has the intelligence to realize what a waste of "food" meat is.
It takes five pounds of protein from grain to form one pound of protein
from meat.  In a world still riddled with starvation, shouldn't we be
more concerned with feeding people with what we have, instead of wasting
it?

Personally, I don't like the taste of red meat.  I consider it a product
of evolution.
