We used to think that the earth was flat, fisha dn animals had no feelings!!
But we discovered that they actually do, so whos to say that potatoes or any other vegwtable for that matter does not have feelings, so what if it doesnt have a centreal nervous system or a brain, mabey it feels things in a different way. (this may sound crazy but who is to say that its not true, just think about it.)
A potatoe is ripped from its warm secure home, put on a lorry, with tonnes of other potatoes, where it is unable to breathe, scrubbed in cleaning products, skinned, diced, cooked in hot fat, adn whos to say that screeching noise that is made isnt the potratoes screaming
i know you are probably thinking what a nutcase. but u never know do you!!!
what are your thaughts on this subject?

Smart girl! I agree with you completely (well maybe except for the screeming part.
I eat potatoes - and meat - and I don't feel the need to apologize for it. I didn't make the rules, I just live by them. In the back of my mind though I realize that these other "beings" gave up their little lives so that I could continue mine for a while longer. I appreciate that, and I am secure in knowing that I will return the favor some day.
I think I'll have a dozen chicken wings for lunch!!!

Well, since potatoes don't have mouths only tons of eyes, I don't see how they could scream in the first place. Second, I think that I see your point but I just don't see what you're trying to accomplish. Should people stop eating potatoes because they might have feelings? I'm sorry, but you lost me here.

My thaughts are that Tomatoes are not Potatoes yet they are almost spelled the same. Other than that I prefer potatoes. I hope that helps their feelings.

Potatoes are serving their purpose as food to people and animals. If that is so, then they should not feel pain or anything.
