    I've been waiting on pins and needles for more info about vegetable rights. This thread is a real nail biter... So many questions. What about fruit rights? Will I get the most likes?

    My first thought was that the thread belongs in Chit-Chat with threads of similar intellect and levels of educational information. You know, threads such as "Bang, Date, Marry, Pass?", "Rate the member above you", or "I would _______ the above member".

    Difficult to camouflage that self righteous soap box though...

    The agenda eventually surfaces if given enough time posts.

    The goal is to learn interesting ideas about what we eat.

    I still haven't learnt anything interesting--waiting.........

    I think I'll just repost this OP. Another page gone by and I'm still waiting too. You came on with alot of promises--nothing but idle chatter so far. Explain your thread and argument, instead of expecting others to do it for you. Still waiting...

    So no one has actually claimed to believe in vegetable rights, right?

    If I believed in 'vegetable rights', the only thing I can think of to do to survive and live up to my convictions about the lives of vegetables would be to relocate to Hawaii where I saw masses of fallen mangoes and fallen fruits that were free for anyone who was shameless enough to pick them up and eat them. People trying this should be careful to check the fruits before eating, especially if they are convinced vegan who are shunning the eating of animals, bugs, worms, insects as there is high riskof accidently eating bugs and critters un-awaredly.

    that feeling when you are trying to compare plants to sentient creatures who are tortured, kept in horrible conditions their entire life, and then slaughtered.

    Science is showing more and more that plants are much more aware of their surroundings and more actively involved socially than we ever imagined.

    That said. I still enjoy eating them as well as all of the other wonderful delicious creatures out there.

    Well, I can google it but I have heard it from friends who studied about it. Do you know links to studies which oppose this?

    I have a magic stone in my back garden which keeps tigers away. Do you know links to studies which opposes this?

    Look at these heartless killers, laughing hysterically at their crimes and eating their victims.

    With a nice Chianti...
