Every once in a while I get that ominous feeling that killing and specially making animals suffer just for me to eat meat, fish and lactose is extremely wrong, but then I kinda forget.
I kinda see myself hunting wild game though so it's weird.

It's easiest to keep it out of the house entirely, and there's a lot of replacements out now for random cravings.

I will literally be walking down an aisle thinking "don't need that snack food, don't need it, don't need it, don't want it " and then I'll just grab it and put it in my car as if I'm defying myself
I think snack foods are fine - everyone deserves nice things, and if your nice thing is sweet things, then I won't judge. There's much worse cravings out there.
I just wish there was a way to buy biscuits without the packaging that goes into a landfill.
Yeah, there's little cure to that besides saving up your willpower for the hour of shopping instead of having to use it constantly to not eat the animal products in your home. It's tough to start!
Yea, I never said that I wouldn't ever eat those thing again and kind of just started cutting things out bit by bit. It started with "I won't buy cow products, but will eat them if other people buy them for a party or something" and I didn't really consciously change anything, but at this point, it's been almost two years since I've purposefully eaten an animal product, and I've barely noticed. I think the goal is to just do better than you are now. Don't tell yourself you can never eat this thing again, just make your decisions about what to eat and what to buy with the animals and the environment in mind.
Try framing it as an identity rather than a behavior. Not "I will stop eating meat" but "I am a vegetarian now."
