I think one can look at this at an individual level and a group level. There are group laws and individual laws or ethics. For the group (all of humanity and all the life that supports us) it may become wrong to eat meat if we are endangering ourselves by taking too many animals out of the equation. As it is now, that's certainly not the case for the majority.
Individually, of course, its up to each person. For me, humans aren't "better" per se than animals, but we do have the capacity to feel more suffering. Morality is about rationality, and I don't want to eat humans not because its immoral but because emotionally its ick. Technically though, I don't think its immoral to eat an already dead human.
