I think that plants DO have feelings. They've been shown to react positively to certain types of music, and to affection. I believe it's very speciest to eat plants and not animals. Plants are living creatures too.

Scientists have yet to prove vegetables can feel pain when harvested. Forget the scientists, a simple experiment is to sever a cucumber or a tomato from its creeper, neither the cucumber, the tomato or the creeper will feel the pain.The creeper will not die, it will continue to bear more fruits. Cut a spinach plant, leaving the bottom stem, it WILL grow. The same CANNOT be applied to a chicken, sheep, goat, cow, pig or any other animal. They either scream in pain, suffer or even die. Can you cut and eat some part of the chicken or sheep or goat or cow or pig and leave the balance to live and grow? The answer is NO. This is based on the divine Hindu principle of Ahimsa.

Since plants are living creatures, wouldn't it be safer to assme that they do have feelings? Life is life and the vegan stand is more than a little silly. After all, eggs really don't have nerve cells and are no more able to feel pain than a plant. You certainly aren't killing an unfertilized egg. Nobody ever said you had to be rational.

They are starving now they just don't know it. Take a look at vegans. Most of them look like a cross between a prune and a raisin.

Do you hate vegans or are you a vegan, do you know a vegan, can you tell the difference between a non vegan and vegan by the way they look...

plants don't have brains so you don't have to worry about that one. Plus there are things like fruit that the plant wants you to eat, thats why its sweet and brightly coloured.
