Humans need protein to be healthy... it doesn't have to be an animal source of protein. There are so many readily available plant based protein sources, I see absolutely no need to resort to animal protein.

Type of food Quantity providing 10g protein (g)

Soya flour 24

Peanuts 39

Pumpkin seeds 41

Almonds 47

Brazil Nuts 50

Sunflower seeds 51

Sesame seeds 55

Hazel Nuts 71

Wholemeal bread 95

Whole lentils dried & boiled 114

Chickpeas dried & boiled 119

Kidney beans dried & boiled 119

Wholemeal spaghetti boiled 213

Brown rice boiled 385

Girls

11-14 yrs = 41.2 g

15-18yrs = 45 g

Women

19-50 yrs = 45 g

50 + yrs = 46.5 g

As you can see from the list above getting that 55 grams is quite easy on a plant based diet.
