I don't see the problem.
With the exception of endangered scecies, I see no relevant moral difference between eating one animal or any other.
Eating cats or dogs for example only seems cruel in those parts of the world where those animals are popular as pets, causing people to have closer emotional relationships to these species than others. But from a purely rational point of view, there is hardly any moral difference in killing chicken or horses. In fact, one might even argue that eating horses is morally better:
Because to get the same amount of meat as from killing one single horse, you'd have to kill dozens or even hundreds of chicken, so eating horses might result in less animal pain.
