If it is unethical to eat a thing than itβs unethical to eat something acting like that thing. Consider my cannibalism example.
But it's not unethical to eat meat in itself, it's because of the needing to kill an animal. The taste/shape/flavor of meat isn't the unethical part right?
That'd be like saying it's unethical to take free gifts because stealing is wrong.
