Absolutely, and I get all that, but there's a big difference between needing something and wanting something.
If I were stranded somewhere needing food and a rabbit came along I would kill and eat it, that's my survival instincts at work. But on a daily basis and because of where I live and what is available to me I need not eat meat to survive.
I don't begrudge anybody who eats animals, I do however have a huge problem with the amount of animals being sacrificed, the way they are being sacrificed and the conditions many are made to bare for our sole desire of satisfying our taste ... not need.

You give to the world when you're giving your best to somebody else.
