That's my chief objection to veganism as a moral eating choice. It is based on a hierarchy where the closer something resembles me the more value it has and the less it resembles me the less value it has.
I think what makes it the most suspect is that the moral outrage about killing is really a thinly veiled attempt at self validation.
