Consuming animal products is a “choice” only insofar as society allows you to choose to do things that are obviously and indisputably morally wrong. Are you free to choose to hold racist views? Yes, you are. Is it morally wrong to judge others solely by skin color? Yes, of course it is.
So saying that something is a “choice” says NOTHING about its morality. We cannot morally justify consuming animal products. Period. Consuming those products may be a matter of “choice” but only in a most superficial sense.
It is not a matter of choice for anyone who takes morality seriously.
