I don't morally justify it, no matter how barbaric it is. For me, meat just taste too good.

  That's not a justification, though, as there is a victim involved. Also, it is not the meat that tastes good, but rather cooking with plant-based seasonings, spices and additions which make a decaying carcass actually palatable. Given that it's possible to emulate the same nutritional profiles and even taste of meat with entirely non-animal derived ingredients, the choice here is pretty clear.

  I love hot dogs, tacos, and pepperoni pizza too much to be vegetarian but what I did was just cut down my meat intake. I eat meat for no more than 3 meals a week

  Animals certainly don't care about your inner mental processes. They can only experience consequences of your actions. So your first sentence seems quite meaningless.

    TBH, I'm not sure what you're trying to say, here. The parent's statement was simple: they don't care about the "barbarism" of eating meat. I think it's taken as a given that they therefore don't much care about what animals experience as the consequence of their actions. So I'm not sure how your comment is relevant or what you meant to achieve by making it. Could you clarify?

      I didn't understand the point of the first part of the comment: > I don't morally justify it, no matter how barbaric it is. It wouldn't matter either way even if he tried to morally justify it. Like with people eating foie gras. They justify it by saying that it's their right to eat what they want. Meanwhile poor geese can't care less, doesn't have any concept of morality, just suffers either way, because the result is the same. People just like eating their ill livers. And it doesn't matter if they justify it or not.
