I don't see avoiding suffering as a tenable or even meaningful way of deciding what to eat, and so I choose based on the effects of what I put inside my body. I eat only animal sourced foods.

How is this any different from a brain-less animal reacting to its stimuli?

I don't think it is any different at all. A narrow definition of "suffering" is reductionist and inadequate.

I mean I agree, I’m all for a plant-based diet for health reasons. But most vegans out there, including the one I was responding to, only use suffering as their argument. Here the part I disagreed with was the “always morally wrong” blanket statement.
