Yes I am mostly afraid of what people will think of me when they see me eat
Also I am very afraid of accidentally dropping my food, or spilling my food. I often just choose to not eat, to avoid the whole mental dialogue on if I should or not

desu this concept of abstaining from eating pork is from the dark and middle ages when hygiene was in general really poor and it was much harder to detect parasites in pork which could give you fatal diseases.
This was because farmers of the past just fed their pigs with whatever cheap bullshit they could get their hands on. Often it was dubious meat scraps and other refused garbage, often the meat was parasite infected. Cows on the other hand just eat grass and vegetation which is almost guaranteed to be free of parasites.
This idea is from the past, it has not much relevance if you live in a first world country with food and safety standards

I personally think its not ethical to eat mammals since they're so close to us, and the only animals which can display emotions. You won't see a snake or insect or bird (they peck their own young to death for fuck's sake) or fish displaying emotions, but a pig, cows, dog, cat, even the smallest mouse can. Its just something that I felt like sharing with you fags. I don't care what you fuckers enjoy eating but just ponder upon this for a moment
