The practice, diet, or philosophy of eating meat, or a system based on meat consumption.
From 'carnivore' with the '-ism' suffix (denoting a practice, system, or belief). This construction mirrors words like 'vegetarianism' and 'herbivism'.
While 'carnivorism' mirrors 'vegetarianism,' we rarely use it as a philosophical stance the way we do for plant-based diets. It reveals how meat-eating was once so normal it didn't need a fancy name!
