Then stop eating. At all.
You are killing something every single time you eat anything. Just because you don't recognize its pain doesn't mean it doesn't feel it.
Murderer.
Life consumes life to continue living. You must kill to live.
Where do you draw the line on 'how much' consciousness something has to have before it's wrong to kill it?
It's like the Denis Leary skit. The cuter something is the harder time we have killing it. Baby seals and otters are really cute, but cows and chickens are ugly so we eat 'em. But for guilt-itarians, even the cows and chickens are too cute so they just kill plants.
Plant killer.
