Why would a theist not want to eat the animals that god put on Earth for us to eat, and made so tasty in the process?

Maybe some atheists are animal lovers or health freaks, or are just grossed out by the thought of eating animals? Or any of the other million reasons people have for choosing not to eat meat?

Wtf does god have to do with it?
If someone believes that their god told them not to eat animals, that's a logical explanation to abstain. But for an Atheist to say it's not moral or correct to eat animals, why the fuck do they think that? What difference does it make? I can't see the logic because it's not there.
