Elodie—yes, manufacturing synthetic meat out of non-animal sources counts. Stick it in. If, y'know, you're still here four years later.

Anyway: I'm wondering if there's a trope for a carnivore who goes pescatarian instead. The reasoning is often that in a world with talking animal characters, fish aren't made sentient—so an obligate carnivore like a cat can eat them without either being a villain or living a nightmare. On the other hand, if the problem is "my usual food is sapient" rather than "my usual food is a living, non-self-aware animal", then that might be more of a reformed cannibal. Or anyway, reformed sapiovore.
