Many shoes contain leather or wool or something. Vegan isn't just about food
I know right, I'm surprised there are so many people here who don't appear to get that. If I look at the image I assume the seller of this pair of shoes just slapped a buzzword on but vegan shoes and clothing are a thing and since when is everything that is not vegan carnivorous? Cheese and honey are also neither, right.
Jokes like this aren't to imply that there are only two options. It also implies the existence of pescatarian shoes for example. The joke is that you apply other related terms to the situation, usually the most absurd of them. In this case carnivorous was probably chosen for the implication that the shoes themselves are carnivorous and would eat you if you wore them.
In that case I just didn't get the joke because a meat-eating shoe would make a good joke
