Reason I eat meat:
- It tastes good.
- Substitutes don't taste that good.
I'm pretty aware that one can get everything one needs eating plants (plus artificially getting B12 only pretty much), but doing so involves eating a lot of plants I don't enjoy eating.
Plus there is a lot of research that shows that proteins, iron and the like, while all available from plants are harder to process and make use of unless you strike the right combination. Not to mention controversity about someof the substitutes like soy being pretty dangerous.
