Vegetarians are responsible for less consumption of plants than non-vegetarians. What do you think fed the cow you're eating?

1) If you are saying that "vegetarians are hypocritical," you are not making an argument about the ethics of eating animals, you are just being a jerk. Vegetarians may or may not be hypocritical as a matter of fact, but that doesn't at all affect the object-level question about whether we ought (not) to eat animals.
2) You're not making an argument about actual vegetarians, you're making an argument against the strawman vegetarian in your head so that you can be more comfortable. Most actual (non-religious) vegetarians don't say bullshit like "all life is sacred," and that's certainly not the reason why they don't eat animals.
2a) Even if they did, you have to steelman if you want to have a legit argument. Find the best possible version of vegetarian ethics and attack that, instead of whatever random quote you found on the internet that you didn't like.
3) Nevertheless, if one believes that all life is sacred, the best thing to do is destroy as little of it as possible when it comes to your diet, which is exactly what vegetarianism is about.

Shhhhh, he only just watched 'The Happening' and he's a little bit freaked out about the plants.

but that's non-parallel to my argument. See, I don't care about the consumption of plants, because I'm not hypocritical. Plants deserve to be killed and eaten, just like animals.

I on the other hand remember when butchers shops had things that were obviously dead rabbits, chickens, etc, hanging on hooks outside. I always knew that meat came from animals. To a modern supermarket shopper, it's not as obvious. and kids who eat only burgers, fish fingers, turkey dinosaurs, chicken nuggets, etc, sometimes really haven't made the connection.
