I think that's the best way. But after cooking veggies for a month, I feel much more confident with them than with meat.
I know tribes kill animals for food, eg with poison arrows. But it's one thing to kill a wild animal that is fit and healthy and eat it fresh, than to buy supermarket meat (see Willowley's post) and eat it has been dead for a week.
In time, my opinion about meat may change. Especially if no veggies are available!
