Standardize the analogical argument in this passage: Some people believe that it is morally wrong to raise and kill animals for the sake of eating their meat and to support this practice by purchasing meat. An argument against the view (that purchasing meat is wrong) is that these animals would not have existed in the first place if people did not purchase meat, and so we are doing them a favor by purchasing their meat. Henry Salt derides this as the “logic of the larder” when he points out that [the logic of the larder] must apply to mankind: “It has, in fact, been the plea of the slave-breeder; and it is logically just as good an excuse for slave-holding as for flesh-eating. It would justify parents in almost any treatment of their children, who owe them, for the great boon of life, a debt of gratitude which no subsequent services can repay. We could hardly deny the same merit to cannibals, if they were to breed their human victims for the table, as the early Peruvians are said to have done.” (Salt 1914)
