Why isn't eating meat a sin?

To some it may be a sin to eat meat, to others it may not be. To some it's just a lifestyle choice not to eat meat, but they may not consider it to be a "sin". Unfortunately, meat (as far as I'm aware) is the only good natural source of vitamin B12, which is essential for good health. If meat contains essential vitamins that cannot be consumed for other non-meat sources, it is difficult to classify eating meat as a sin, as it is a "necessity". This seems the primary reason why it is difficult to classify meat-eating as a sin. However B12 is available in tablet form (and injection) so that no vegetarians have to compromise their health. Thus there is an argument that we should all go vegetarian to prevent global warming.

Is it a sin to eat meat during Lent in catholicism?

Yes, you may touch meat. Abstinence is the penance required and is not specific except on Good Friday for many Christians. No eating of meat if that is what you "give up" for lent. Butchers must work through lent, hard to do if they were not able to touch meat. Many people give up other things other than meat. Meat is not a staple food for many cultures. It is the spirit of the penance that makes it valid.
