That's a very accurate observation. I recently saw a clip, maybe from some movie or show. There was a guy who brought a pig to a party, saying "Meet Jack (for example, I don't remember), we're going to eat him, I'm going to slaughter him now". What outraged the guests was that there would be children watching, so his behavior was deemed inappropriate. But overall, no one would have minded eating the pig if it was done discreetly. I'm not a vegan either, but it's kind of hypocritical.
