No. Nobody can be purely rational—we just don’t know how to construct minds that are free of bias, or if it’s even possible.
Thus, we don’t know if vegan diet is what a rational mind would choose.

1) Nobody is rational, so nobody is rational and non-vegan. Nobody is rational and vegan for that matter. 2) More importantly, we don’t even know what the math looks like for the calculation of what to eat. Especially for farmed animals, where you first have to solve the existence-value question (is it better to exist and then be eaten, or not to exist at all).
