Pretty sure he meant that being a vegetarian in the West is a luxury, as in most people in Western countries don't have easy cheap access to the fresh fruits vegetables etc. required for a vegan diet so it becomes a luxury. Most Westerners eat meat derived products because it is what is cheap and available. To actually eat Vegan you have to avoid almost all mass produced processed foods, since they usually contain ingredients that would be objectionable to a vegan.
That's what follows from Thor's actual post.
