If you were a radish would you want to be eaten?

Question

I know that tomatoes, full of seeds, WANT to be eaten. But what about radishes? Lettuce? Brussel sprouts? The vegetarians think they are being nice by eating vegetables, but since we can't even talk to animals, is it not possible that vegetables are sentient, too, only we don't know it? (I think the political vegetarians' position is untenable in either case.) But vegetables -- plants of all kinds, including fruit -- discard seeds in different ways, some of which are obviously meant to be eaten and spread that way. So how about the none-seed part of the plant? Are we making them scream? (I won't stop eating animals, even, but the philosophy of eating live things makes me wonder.) What do you think?

Answer 1

i think everything is living and although vegetables can't speak if we truly listen and become one with the vegetables we will find that vegetables have feelings too.  save the animals save the radishes.  i would not want to be eaten.

Answer 2

Maybe yes because Then they can grow more from you planting them

Answer 3

No

Answer 4

Well, if I were a radish - I think I would not mind people consuming me as food!  If they killed me first and I was dead, why would I care about a body without soul?!  But if they ate me "raw" that would be really painful ~~~~... don't bite raw whole radish, please!!!!
