There are three possible explanations: protective colouring, shame, and
an insidious attempt to play the serpent in Eden.  Upon thy belly shalt

There is a fourth (and most probable): Cultural addiction to land
animal products: The original food culture of these people is not well
acquainted with the olivoil-vegetables-fish diet, or abhors it.
Children are fed land animal meat and fat from the start and get
hooked on it. Horror of horrors, they even eat their fish ("fish"
without bones or fish taste, things like salmon) with dairy!

As a result, you'll see all these large geographic areas where
cholesterol diets are shaped around, again, land animals (chicken
everywhere, not really any better than your red meat); of course their
vegetarian products are trying to emulate meat in both taste and
shape.
