From the Forums: Do Vegetables Have Feelings?

TreeHuggerForever is concerned:

Apparently there are people out there that are concerned for the "feelings" of vegetables and the cruelty of ending their lives when we consume them. Is this a joke? Veggies have no nervous systems. Or hearts, minds or souls. They will rot and die if you don't pick and consume them. My question is: Has anybody else heard of this? Do you agree? Is it a joke?

So do vegetarians need to rethink some things? Join the conversation.
