Make your case for not eating meat, but you can't do it from that passage in the Bible. The Bible's forbidden fruit was unambiguously fruit from a tree, not animal flesh. Adam and Eve's taking of it was direct rebellion against God. Turning Earth back into heaven requires atonement for that rebellion against God. It has absolutely nothing to do with eating meat. In fact, one of the very first things that God does in Genesis 3:21 after Adam and Eve take the forbidden fruit is provide animal skins as clothing for them, partially to foreshadow the system of animal sacrifices that would be instituted by God in the book of Exodus for the nation of Israel.
