Yes, it is MUCH more waste of arable land and resources. The photo Turq posted just shows how stupid meat-eaters are. I'm prectically a fruitarian in the summer - never mind a vegetarian, and I am not as squeemish, as most meat eaters are, about killing animals if I had to. Plus I run up mountains for fun, and can kick the ass of the average 25 year old meat-eater no problem. I don't know if Turq eats meat, but I bet Turq never killed an animal for food in his life.
