If this hasn't point hasn't been made yet- How do you feel about animal testing?
I would argue that animals go through the most brutal and gruelling experiences in addition to death in order to demonstrate how certain chemicals will affect humans.
Heparin, vaccines, and myraid other life-saving products require the death of animals to occur before production; they are our slaves and are put to death purely for our benefit, yet even many vegetarians will agree that animal testing is vitally necessary to protecting the welfare of the human race.

I'd rather humans die than animals.

I believe valid and generalisable frameworks of morality can be derived from ideas like social contracts and Kant's categorical imperative.
Animals that have no ability to respect any laws or agreements or social contracts, deserve no moral consideration.
Certain animals have some ability to respect certain agreements or some subsets of a typical human social contract. For example: dogs; cats; certain birds; certain marine life such as octopodes, dolphins, orcas; pigs; horses. These animals deserve an elevated but still subhuman level of moral consideration.

Human children below a certain age aren't able to observe laws or respect a social contract either. Do you think they're also excluded from moral consideration as well?

WHAT?
Should I have posted…..”I had a filet tonight to energize my body, threrefore; I support the holocaust of animals!”?
Come on now. SMH
Posting what you had for dinner isn't really a discussion of the ethics of eating meat, but you'll notice that wasn't what I deleted. It was half page of penis jokes and non sequitur posts.
