@Pat oh right, people eat dead things!

@autumn @Pat
Dead plants, dead bugs, dead animals. Even if it's alive, it does through digestion anyway.

Even some plants eat other plants- sometimes insects.

Some fungi/bacteria eat living animals/plants.

It is statistically highly unlikely any vegetarian has never swallowed a spider before in their sleep.

I ate bbq chicken today and it was delicious. The meat fell off the bone as I ripped into it.

@Pat @lucifargundam well, yeah. but industrial farming is pretty shit for the environment and the animals. for me, it’s about reducing harm rather that eliminating it. i still eat eggs and dairy, so i’m still contributing to that in some way, but reducing a little is always an improvement.

I don’t know how they even do that without barfing themselves.

>”reducing a little is always an improvement.

I don’t eat anyone that can think. I also don’t eat any bodily fluids from them.

I don’t believe plants or fungus can think.
