To be clear, I eat a mostly plant-based diet due to environmental considerations, not because I find it bizarre to consume animal products. Do you somehow find it bizarre or gross that worms and other microorganisms breakdown dead matter from sentient creatures to produce the soil used to grow crops? Or the involvement of insects in the production of said crops? Do you find it gross for a baby to consume breast milk?
Yes, actually. Aren’t all of those things weird if you think about it? But there’s a large difference between weird-but-circumstantially-necessary, vs weird-and-literally-not-even-good-for-you.
