'Buddha: "Jivaka, those who speak thus do not say what has been said by me, but misrepresent me with what-is untrue and contrary to fact. Jivaka, I say that there are three instances in which meat should not be eaten: when it is seen, heard, or suspected that the living being has been slaughtered for the bhikkhu.'

The dalai lama eats meat supposedly due to the jaundice he had with hep B....it could have happened that doctors advised him to do that, but id doesn't make no sense.
