Yet another vegetarianism imposition ploy under the garb of suave english but questionable logic. Plants can feel noxious stimuli too, albeit in a different manner as repeatedly shown by Dr Jagadish Chandra Bose. Why should the apparent sentience of animals be proclaimed superior to the electrochemical response in plants? Prevention of unnecessary cruelty is a noble endeavor but we do need food to live. Till we can survive on chemical pills or start photosynthesis, both exclusive vegetarian and mixed diet consumers have to content with food that was once alive. They may assuage their guilt with doubtful logic but the “negative vibrations” of plant genocide will seep into vegetarian diets too.
