Veganism is almost viable. Almost.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_B12
Human metabolism cannot make cobalamin, nor any of its analogues. The only known non-animal source is seaweed.

But the meat you eat is fed B12 to give it the B12. Without supplementation they're chronically deficient as well. Animals are not the best way to get your B12.

I previously suffered from chronic B12 deficiency on an omni diet and was supplementing B12 with a megadose 2x every week. Doing a supplement 1x a week with a vegan diet, my B12 blood levels are better than ever.
