Imagine what it would be like to be a vegetable. You are sitting quietly in the place where you live, the place where you have lived your entire life in complete harmony with the earth. You have everything you could possibly wish for. Suddenly, an enormous hand rips you out of your comfortable place. The betrayal is made even worse by the fact that this same hand is the one that brought you water all through the heat of the summer, that fed you when the soil nutrients were poor.
Once you have been ripped from your home, you are forced to bathe in cold water. Then you are laid, utterly naked, on a sterile white board. You see the flashing of a large gleaming knife as it dismembers you piece by piece, starting at your toes and working its way up your body. Fluids ooze out of you as the pain mounts. The last thing you see is the blade coming down on your head.
This is the sad, short, and painful life of a vegetable in our supposedly health-conscious society. Of course, not all vegetables end up like this. If they’re lucky, they get to decay, forgotten in the bottom of the refrigerator. No one knows when they lose consciousness as the molds slowly infest their chilly bodies, gradually turning them to mush.
Shocked? You should be. Vegetables have feelings too, and yet they are raised in inhumane conditions, forced to live outside in dirt and mud, and, in even the best of "organic" gardens, allowed only manure to eat.
Vegetables are supposed to be "healthy" food, but what kind of health can you get from eating vegetables? Even nutritionists admit that meat is higher in protein and grains are higher in carbohydrates than most vegetables. Supposedly vegetables are valuable for their vitamin content. But any one of us can walk into a grocery store and buy vitamins that are derived from non-vegetable, cruelty-free sources.
End the madness now! Stop eating your vegetable brothers and sisters! Support vegetable rights! (We have animal rights and mineral rights, why neglect vegetable rights?)
