** This is explained, in a pretty disturbing way, in the season 2 episode "Chickens." There are "friend" chicken people, then there are "food" chickens that are genetically modified and injected with hormones from birth to be, well, like real-life chickens, but with the same anthropomorphic bodies as all the talking animals. Presumably all the meat comes from animals like this.

** Well they do specifcally have a throw-away gag with her giving someone who ordered steak the stink eye, so we have to assume yes. How that works in a world where animals are very clearly sentient and capable of protesting being eaten? No clue.
