Potentially more important than vegetarianism:

1. How many meals are eaten in a day.
2. Excess eating in order to exercise for beautification.
3. Buying local vs. otherwise.

There may be other examples; it isn't so much a matter of the precept against killing as it is a matter of pursuing Right Livelihood. Deeply related, but focusing on vegetarianism might be missing the forest for the trees.
