>>The Shulchan Aruch in Yoreh Deah Siman 81 paskens that a Jewish  baby
is allowed to have a non-Jewish wet nurse, however the Shulchan  Aruch
says that you shouldn't do it because the non-kosher food will  harm
the baby spiritually. 
 
... In any case, we
see clearly from the Ran that non-kosher is  objectively poison and
harmful even if you eat it  b'heter.



....We see clearly that this idea that any non-kosher food is  metamtem
halev, meaning it has intrinsic effects, even if eaten  b'heter<<

I've long noticed that vegetarians often become ba'alei teshuva or to put  it 
another way, many BTs have a history of having been vegetarians.  I have  
long believed that since they were willy nilly keeping kosher, their neshamos  
were purified and were more open to accepting the Torah.  (No, I'm not  a 
vegetarian.)
