Does anyone else sometimes feel guilty about eating meat, but can't stop eating it because it tastes so good?

Asked by Hobbes (7368points) February 11th, 2011

I sometimes remember the fact that when I eat meat, I’m actually consuming the burned muscle of what was formerly another living being. I also know that the animals are raised in often raised terrible conditions and are sometimes butchered in inhumane ways. I do try to eat organic meat, but it’s not available while I’m at college. Yet, I continue to eat meat because I have a deep desire to do so. Meat tastes delicious to me because people evolved eating meat. I can’t help this, but I still feel bad about it sometimes. Has anyone else experienced this conflict? What did you do?
