I’m not one, but I try to limit the amount of meat I eat to only a few times a week. I have vegetarian friends, and I always tell them that I have no objection to eating meat on “meat is murder” grounds (my cat eats meat, my vegetarian friend’s dog eats meat-it’s the circle of life and stuff), but I do have objections on the the grounds that I mentioned and you reiterated- i.e. that meat-eating is incredibly wasteful and selfish, just, as you pointed out, like driving an SUV.
