Reason:

Pretty much just a forgone conclusion. Pro provides a simple but reasonable argument as to how utilitarianism implies that we should be vegans. Con's only argument is that we'd have to release all domestic animals into the wild where they'd die, but Pro points out that this isn't actually true, which Con provides no response to, dropping their one and only point in this debate.
