To be honest, I'm not really concerned about animal welfare. Neither that much about environmental issues concerning factory farming.

Selfishly, I just want to not die from the #1 most likely cause of death for me, which is heart disease. I just want to lose weight and feel great.

I'm vegetarian actually, not vegan. Vegs have wonderfully lower blood pressure. I mean everyone knows eating too much meat (especially artery clogging animal fat), eggs, cheese, deep-fried french fries, sugar-loaded foods, processed foods, etc. are obviously bad for you.

It's about moderation. Maybe some day I'll have a steak once or twice a year or something. It's about making small or medium or big changes. It's about wanting to get /fit/, lower blood pressure, lose weight. It's about reversing type 2 diabetes. It's about preventing and treating heart disease and cancer.

It's about curing constipation (1 bowel movement a day is very marked constipation) and resetting that gut microbiome flora, which can clear the blood, body, and mind.

It's about clearing out many possible backed up meals, which can poison the gut microbiome and reverse poison the entire system. This is one of the most overlooked, very possibly almost universal, causes and aggravators of dis-ease and illness. Some people are more concerned about frequently changing the oil on their cars than clearing out and changing their poisoned gut microbiome flora, flushing out the bad and planting/inoculating the good, one way with probiotics for example.

It's about 3 massive glorious bowel movements a day from eating tons of salads, fruit, fiber, seeds, nuts, and an occasional beyond or impossible burger or three. It's about clearing up your liver, your burdened kidneys, your skin. It's about cold & lukewarm showers in the morning to cure morning sluggishness and depression.

It's about still going hunting & slaughtering animals for others even if you yourself don't. And a lot of the food tastes like meat.
