It's easier not to feel bad about what you do to something that can't stare at you while you're doing it....lol

One thing vegans don't tell you is that after a while they cannot eat meat without being ill. Your gut needs specific microbes to digest meat. In vegans,those microbes die.
Every vegan I've met has been skinny and dour. I have no idea if that is the result of the diet or if they are just naturally boring and humourless.

What a terrible thing! Becoming vegan is like committing genocide on an entire race of microbes! Microbes that have taken care of you for your whole life! What a terrible thing to do!
"Sisters, you know only the north; I have traveled in the south lands. There are churches there, believe me, that cut their children too, as the people of Bolvangar did--not in the same way, but just as horribly. They cut their sexual organs, yes, both boys and girls; they cut them with knives so that they shan't feel. That is what the Church does, and every church is the same: control, destroy, obliterate every good feeling. So if a war comes, and the Church is on one side of it, we must be on the other, no matter what strange allies we find ourselves bound to."

Yeah...lets take those microbes, plants and meat and toss them all into the blender...
...I'm sure I can make some kind of tasty alcoholic beverage out of them.

Funnily enough you need microbes for alcoholic beverages ...in fact alot of our food relies on them as far as I understand

Yup, yeasts to turns sugar to alcohol and therefore VEGEMITE . I kid you not;Vegemite is made from yeast extract,a bi product of beer making.
Vegemite only LOOKS like axel grease and can only be eaten if it inflicted on you as an infant with your teething rusks. I've seen large adult Americans burst into tears trying too eat Vegemite on toast. Some people have made the mistake of thinking Vegemite is a laxative ,because of its appearance. Neither does it kill crab lice.

LOL, ironically enough, this was where I was going with vaginism, although the consumed are often the squeamish rather than the consumers in that case.

Yes it is quite easy to acquire a taste for vaginism. Studies show you'll live longer and be happier.
