I always had trouble working out exactly what my moral stance was on eating meat (except in respect to the treatment of the animals).
Although I didn't feel comfortable eating all meat I didn't see it as wrong in nature.
What I've decided in recent years is that if I would be comfortable killing the animal on my plate myself for food (in the way that it was killed) then it's morally OK for me to eat it. Otherwise it would be immoral for me to do so.
Many, however, would be more comfortable just avoiding all meat, as this approach involves a lot more thought (which can be a little unsettling when you're just trying to order a sandwhich!).
