I very much like this. I've had serious philosophical conversations with friends, and other vegetarian friends, regarding why I could or could not eat vat-grown meat, ethically, as a dragon. And how much I miss hunting but why I'd not do it with a gun.

vat grown meat? does that exist? 0_o
even so, it would make for interesting discussion concerning ethics :)
do you not hunt with a gun so you're more fairly matched with your prey?

Not commercially, not yet - but it has been produced; it's currently too slow for feasible production in bulk. Also, it'll have to go through Hell's very own half-acre of FDA approvals before it can be sold for human consumption, I'm sure. :P
