    That’s a very poor strawman analogy.

    A better analogy is, if your dream job said you could no longer eat steak or chicken, would you do it? If your dream job required you to eat a vegan or vegetarian diet, would you?

    OP wasn’t suggesting that the person eat non-halal meat, they were suggesting they just don’t eat meat.

        The privilege of being vegetarian or vegan would probably increase the health of our society quite a bit, as well as our environment if everyone adopted that standard.

        Either way: if I’m getting my dream job out of it I’ll go full vegan gluten free hard mode yo.

          That’s great, can you awknlowdge there’s a large host of reasons beyond a persons control that makes 100% vegetarian adoption impossible?

          Its great that YOU can do that, not everyone can.
