To be honest I picked the first result. I read something along similar lines, a bit more sciencey, from a non-vegan years ago. I understand two of the lines drawn by vegans are pain and consent. But oysters cannot feel pain or consent any more than a potato.
Some do. Some emit smells that tell other plants to turn bitter. Some communicate and even pass nutrients through the mycelial network. So let’s all agree on mushrooms maybe?
i find it hard to eat something with more sexes (or is it genders? i haven’t finished that paper) than sense. not like emotionally, physically. they pass straight on through. i should just drop them right in the toilet and skip the middleman.
oh that’s 100% a “i’m ‘vegan’ but i miss oysters and need an excuse” article
