vegetarian/vegan pantheist question

This question is for all the vegetarian/vegan pantheist. why? i’m still new to pantheism so take this with a grain of salt; if everything in the universe is on the same level then wouldn’t eating plants be the same as killing an animal? I’m personally vegetarian because of the way animals get treated before being slaughtered and the carbon footprint it has, so i’m wondering where vegetarianism fits into pantheism.
