I love meat. We have evolved for 250000 years by eating meat. It's in our dna. There's vitamins, aminoacids, proteins in meat that we can't get from vegetables.
Having said that I loathe the meat industry. They treat animals like inanimate objects. I'd much rather you go out and hunt for your meat than having these poor pigs live their lives in a cage, same as chickens. Only knowing pain. Psychosis.
I've seen pigs try to eat the metal bars in order to try to escape.. It's messed up.
We really do need to step up as a species and stop the suffering. Animals are intelligent, have feelings, and knows the difference between love and hate. And have the capacity for both.
Nothing makes my soul more happy than seeing animals be free and do what they want to.
