Raising animals for meat isn't the best idea by itself, but combined with uses, they work well. Attack pigs for instance work good as you can eat ones that die, and they haul too, and breed easy enough you can keep cycling in new ones when other ones die off.
Add to that the using kibble to handle human meat being recycled into animal meat over time, and its viable to use them as meat, but I would recommend getting animals that can do something useful while they fatten up, otherwise the usage is a little dubious.
I like pigs the best because they are very easy to train, do all jobs, and are omnivores : pretty much easy mode animals, but they don't do any job super well either.
But they are good haulers, decent cuddle animals for mood bonuses, ok at attacking, and easy to provide meat. Plus, taming them is much easier than taming boars, or squirrels, or other critters.
Guess the big question is if you have a decent tamer, if so, go ahead, if not, just put the effort into growing more food. Though remember that human meat can be recycled into good meat using this approach, and if you have plenty, its worth it to get, effectively, free meat.
....Really depends on what the feed situation is for the animals, I guess.
