Explanation:
Thanksgiving arrives every year with a heated debate over how to best cook that plump and juicy turkey. But the idea of a tofu turkey (also known as a “tofurkey”) has gone from a joke a couple years ago to a reality for many. While vegetarianism has been practiced for over a thousand years in some countries, it is a relatively new concept in the West. And so, with the question cropping up more and more often, should we eat meat?

A Clarification of the Question
Thanks from here as well
I'm fine with focusing just on the dietary aspect for the sake of this question, but focusing only on animal flesh totally misses the problems inherent in the "production" of dairy and eggs for human consumption. If we are going to focus on diet, we need to address the morally unjustifiable consumption of all animal products.
