Do plants feel the same pain as animals do when they are cut?
So, if plants don't feel pain, is it ethical to eat them?
That's a moral and ethical question that varies from person to person. There are certainly arguments for both sides. Some people argue that plants have a different kind of consciousness or that they deserve to live just as much as animals. Others argue that since plants don't have the same kind of consciousness as animals and that they are not sentient beings, it's okay to consume them.
