Literally chuckling, first sip of coffee barely swallowed in time to avoid spilling!
Hard to say, but he celebrated Passover after the trumphal entry on the ass, and was welcomed and financed by enough people "of means," that lamb was probably served. Additionally there are the five loaves and two fishes miracle, so I'm not sure. I lean toward agreement with you, although it's possible he restrained from fish and lamb, himself, as we're simply not told.
I will encourage you he literally told the disciples not to take everything so literally, after the Sermon on the Mount, when asked why he taught in parables. My latest hypothesis is that in certain instances, "dead/death" referenced spiritually dead (eating from the tree of life, dead bury the dead), and the reason his teachings not being for those who didn't understand the parables is because those people had hardened their hearts (empty cups), and hadn't done the spiritual work (being spiritually alive) to understand. Wait until you start digging into Judaism and Jewish mystacism! 🤯 The soul is truly taught differently!
Anyway, best along your journey, may it ever bring you closer to union within yourself and the Divine.
Oh yeah, that was one of the things that got resolved to "hell" is not a place, but more of a state of being, or rather not being anymore. How atheists view death.
Well the "Jesus is not a vegan" is of course a bit of a caricature. More broadly, genesis talks about giving "mankind dominion over animals" for example. God drowns all the animals except two for mankinds sins? Seven if they're "holy"? Being kinda speciesist there bestie... Not to mention the hell did those animals that got drowned do?? But the thing I'm most hung up on atm is after Jesus death him appearing at the shore and telling his disciples to cast their nets on the right side, them murdering a christillion of fish and coming to shore to Jesus already having the fire to roast them lit. Got me going "Not my savior 😤" in only a half-joking way to be real.

That may help, but then is even questionable since there are seven heavens and Merkaba.
