Why not?
There needs to be an extremely valid reason to actually stop eatinq meat.
Nah there really doesn't.
1. Bioloqically able to diqest meat
2. Body needs nutrients contained naturally only in meat
3. It tastes qood
4. Less valid reason, but most cultures widely eat meat
so unless you were born not eatinq meat there needs to be a valid loqical reason to deprive the body of necessary nutrients usinq a method that has worked for tens of thousands of years
Your logic is extremely flawed. Just because we're "biologically able to digest meat", that's an "extremely valid" reason to eat it? Your body can digest a shitload of things, but that doesn't necessarily mean you should eat them. I can digest dog food, but I'm not going to start eating it...
The nutrients found in meat can be found elsewhere (not often naturally, though), and isn't really an inconvenience.
And a classic..."Everyone else does, so I should too." Seriously?
I don't disagree with you completely, however. Meat is tasty.
OP: Meat is tasty. Even as a vegetarian, I will concede that point. I wish people would stop claiming that it's some sort of evolutionary marvel or that you need it to be healthy or that vegetarians are pussies. That's not why people eat meat and they know it. They eat it because they like it, and they like it because it tastes good. That's all.
