I tend to agree.
Personally I'd rather supplement with a pill than with a cow though. There are vegan B12 supplements available. To me it would be no big deal to take one if I thought I really needed it.
One thing people overlook is that you can eat lots of meat and still have a B12 deficiency, so supplementing with animal products doesn't get you out of the woods. Meat eaters can run into B12 assimilation problems.
