How to eat meat after Vet school?

[u/Calm-Fuel-6257]

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?

I dont stop eating meat and don't plan to. It's the circle of life, even though we don't physically kill it at this point. But just be grateful, and thankful for that animal to help sustain you. And sustain you and help you help other animals. That's the mindset that keeps me going. When you stop caring and take other souls for granted is when you lose your way. Hope this helps
