More like disassociation. They just don't connect killing animals to eating meat. So they don't feel a cognitive dissonance.

Like... People living comfortable in captialistic countries/societies, don't think they personally kill all victims of capitalism. They just don't connect these things. They disassociate their life and living standards from the 'others'.
