A curse hardly indicates approval. Plus if it was a righteous and intended food then it would have been authorized from the start. It wasn't.
Jesus and the apostles were vegan. Veganism was a cornerstone of the Christ Consciousness teaching and ethos, as a practical daily application of the law of love.

knight... you purposely have taken things out of context.
The blood requirement verse is about the shedding of another persons blood. Not about animals.
Jesus spoke also about "feasts", and gave no indication of a pro vegetarian lifestyle.
He stated that it is not what goes into a person which defiles them, but what is emitted.
"15 It's not what goes into your body that defiles you; you are defiled by what comes from within"
Interesting though, how people will assert certain things.
