    To expand upon what Ephera said, chicken typically yields about 12 calories of output for every 100 calories used as input. Beef is abysmally low at 3 calories out per 100 calories in. If someone genuinely believes that plants feel pain (which they categorically don’t) and wants to cause the least possible, the first thing they would want to cut out is meat. That’s just thermodynamics at work.
