Being vegetarian really changed my "biology" and "mentality". After a few years I was super sensitive to meat. Could smell it, even just broth, in food. It would make me somewhat sick if I ate it. I think you loose enzymes needed to break it down. Meat stopped being food to me. Was not hungry for it, did not think mmmmm when I smelled it. A few more years and I was repulsed by site of raw meat. When I saw chicken on bone all I could think of was muscles and bones in my own arm and how I wouldn't eat that!
I started (and ended) being vegetarian for health reasons. Somewhere along the way I concluded it was morally wrong to eat meat esp mammals. No one convinced me, it just arose from mental and physical changes. I was / am kind of shocked I feel that way.
After 12-14 years being vegetarian I started eating meat again. I still believe it is morally wrong. I actually went to aqurium to tell fish that I was sorry that I was going to start eating them. Guess I was resolving guilt i felt. I struggle a lot with depression. After trying many things with no success, I decided I needed meat. Can't be sure correlation, but health is better now. I feel guilty eating animals, but I'm selfish enough/depression sucks enough for me to put my health before (some of) my morals.
That's me, YMMV.
