The same way we eat a dead cow because hey, cheap $1 protein with ketchup. It's habit and no reason to stop and think it through, plus everyone does it so it must be ok.

Not at all the same.

The majority of consumers don't even see the cow, much less kill it themselves.

It's a lot more than "habit", it's downright delicious!

Human meat is also delicious.

If you say so, but definitely not cheap.
