I'm thinking of only eating meat when going out to a nice restaurant, or for certain special meals (ie American Thanksgiving). But avoiding the commodity meat and being vegetarian as much as possible at home.

They don't go through much effort to hide the source of meat. In fact, some places hang the meat out in the sun (and flies and dirt) for you to see it as you drive by.
Never mind that there is no quality control, animal welfare, USDA, sanitization, etc... Heck, the meat they serve you might not even be what they advertise. Plenty of dogs and cats roaming around. Don't forget, right before covid, there was a mass swine flu going around where they slaughtered literally every single pig in the northern part of the country.
Anyway, I always cringe now when people try to tell me how good street food is... if you've seen some of the things I've seen... the decision is pretty easy.
You could also try to find one good vegetarian dish and cook that once in a while. Daal is my goto vegetarian dish that tastes good and is easy to make in large batches.
