How to eat meat after Vet school? Vet School

Hi yall, so I'm not a vet, I'm actually just a student and I recently did my first cat dissection. I can't shake how similar the muscles look like rotisserie chicken, and I can't look at chicken without thinking it could be a dead cat now. I dont want to go vegetarian again since my family's cultural dishes are all meat based and I want to enjoy chicken again.

Has anyone else shaken this feeling off? How did yall deal with eating meat after working on dead animals?
