Sounds promising.

A fair litmus test is to show it to a non-vegetarian friend without comment and see if she thinks it's about vegetarianism or rationality. Alternatively, if you can identify the flaw in people's rationality that is apparently leading them to act inconsistently with their morals, and that flaw is something more generally applicable than "failure to take my 3 arguments seriously," then you've got a winner.
