Which pandemic was caused by people eating meat?

Much of what you said is true, but some of it is a stretch, and taken altogether it seems like an exaggeration.

As another comment mentioned, the one we just lived through where I had to be inside for 2 years. It came from a live meat market.

That's so far from being decisively proven that I genuinely forgot it was one of the theories.

I wouldn't be surprised if we get a sufficiently human-transmissible avian flu pandemic within the decade, given how many non-avians the current strain has been killing in addition to birds.

Literally the current one? I mean yes there's the lab leak theory, but still the common explanation is that it first jumped the species gap at a meat market.
