Can you provide a reason why it isn't morally acceptable? My claim is that most animals are not self-aware, and it's ok to eat them if they aren't. Plenty of animals eat meat, although they could survive on plants alone. Are the predators morally reprehensible as well?

well, breeding animals is very ineffective. it is a waste of resources. if everybody stopped eating meat we could probably help more starving people

Animal foods contain all the essential amino acids required in our diet. Plants have incomplete proteins, so you have to be careful that you're eating the right combination so you get all the essential amino acids in your body in the right proportions.
