Raising non-human animals ends up taking more plants anyway because they eat a lot of feed who's energy is mostly lost. So if one were concerned with plants, eating plants directly results in fewer plants being killed

If your goal is to minimize the overall harm to plants through your own consumption the most ethical thing to eat is people.
