A public preacher like Ramakrishna _by definition_ preaches by his/her example.
Since Ramakrishna and Vivekananda both ate meat, it is to be understood
without any doubt that they preached it, since anyone following them can
and would say that my teacher did so it must be right.

Meat eating is an extremely abominable act and counts as one of the great
fault in anyone esp. one who is aspiring for spiritual advanceent.

Read again, a public preacher like Ramakrishna by definition preaches by his/
her example.
Only a follower/supporter of such perverted swamis will try to cover their
hedonistic actions by such wilfully concocted logic.
Hari Bol!
