[The camera comes on crookedly as it hits the ground, showing a frantically struggling and squeaking mouse being held up to Apollo's face in both fists. He grins.]

Gotcha.

[The mouse's squeaking and struggling abruptly ends when Apollo bites its head off. There's the faint sound of crunching bones as he stuffs the rest of it into his mouth with both hands, finally slurping up the tail like a noodle before licking his lips contentedly. He starts to bound off on all fours, then stops, pats a pocket, and returns for his D-Comm. The feed ends.]

Actually you have to be very smart to not eat meat, simply because they need to be aware of what non-animal products provide all the nutrients they need.

That sounds like too much work. And boring if you never eat meat. Why'd anyone wanna do that?

Health or moral reasons, mostly.

Meat's the best way to get nutrients. You need those to be healthy.

Some health conditions can be made worse if one eats too much meat though. Particularly red meat.

That's gotta suck, not being able to eat meat.

And yet some people decide to, or have to, do so. And for them it doesn't suck.

... Well except for the ones who do need to cut back for health reasons, but they tend to adapt.
