It's actually you who is trying to get the plant benefits through the animal delivery system. It's just not effective, especially longevity-wise. Unfortunately the animals get the worst, pesticide-laden plants, so you do too... Not to mention seafood's microplastics and land animals' injections\hormones.
Plant-based diets are so unequivocally proven to extend life expectancy without comparison to any current fad, which anyone with the ability to do the minimum amount of research can see.
Decomposing animals and plants become the atomic particles from which they are made from. There's no such thing as fish carbon or beef carbon. If such a logic were true, you'd be "eating" the dead body of a human because it was buried in the same grass that your dinner just ate.

Well, half of it at least. The other half was like listening to Debbie Downer. Depressing.
It will when your 80 and healthy as a horse, but not a horse from the Kentucky Derby.

Mic drop.
I'd love to mind meld into some broccoli for it to say "Yes, please tear me up/chop me up, and eat me alive!" Hmmm.. not feeling that.
Well, you kind of answered it yourself. Plants do want to live, and farmers would go broke if you needed to chop down a tree everytime you wanted to eat an apple.
Most of the time, the part of the fruit /vegetable you're eating is essentially the plant's byproduct, not the roots which actually kill the plant. The apple on the tree serves no purpose for the tree itself other than a vessel to entice you to eat its seed. It's food for the ecosystem around it. If it wasn't touched, it would rot on the tree and fall to the ground. That plants seed wouldn't become to spread to other places. The new sapling would have a hard time surviving because it's competing right under the parent tree for rain, the sun's light, and root space.
Plants want to be eaten so that their seeds get dispersed and their genetics continue to flourish in other areas. A watermelon will eventually rot and have 0 chances to spread their seeds if it's not eaten, a watermelon seed is useless if it isn't fertilizered. That random bird that decided to break it open and eat it is actually doing the watermelon a favor.

Reproduction is not much different. You have a male, and a female. with some being hermaphrodites. We're in the same tree. You are talking about fruit trees, watermelons etc. Not all plants have that same fruit style seed germination. Maybe in the future we can connect to these beings. I guess when that happens, Vegans will just starve?
*** "If it wasn't touched, it would rot on the tree and fall to the ground." - It would make more apple trees, not sh*t out our butt into oblivion.

Are you high? It's almost like you didn't read anything I wrote lol.
Weren't you just asking about why plants would want to be eaten? Why did you end up on some wild tangent about Impossible Meat meets Animal Farm?
Moreover, why are you "believing" anything I'm saying when you could just read a botany book and do the thinking for yourself instead of asking Randoms in a deal thread. You're definitely the insecure weirdo in these types of places. 🤔

I'm on a "wild tangent" because I asked a stereotypical vegan how they can explain eating living creatures.. usually it's the "central nervous system" etc which of course animals in the USA are hashed out instantly without pain. Not all plants want to be eaten via their fruit where of course. they live on. What about annual plants that don't want to die? I mean you have no clue what they think.. but just spout BS saying that this is what they must feel? Eat all the plant-based meals you want, I just hope they don't look like ground up "mammal meat' which most do. Interesting.

1. I'm not a vegan, I'm a vegetarian. Your analysis was wrong, might want to check your 'stereotypical vegan' sensors.
2. No, you've gotten enough of my time for free. I should bill you for the lessons and knowledge.
A lot of your arguments is based on 'I think... and I feel' which isn't scientific in any realm outside of Facebook.
Find a new opponent to express your disgruntled vegan Reeses views. 🥱
Nobody asked, nobody cared, but these types never fail to bring their soapbox into all these types of deals.
The sensitivity is amazing…

You really just said and believe that??? Assuming you've never been to or seen the inside of a slaughter house, have you? The screams are the shit of nightmares bro, workers legit have PTSD from it…

I have, I've got about 3 years as an electrician in pigs and a year in chickens, the only screams you hear are nervous ones.. I mean pigs squeal just messing with each other.
Pigs were put to sleep with pure CO2 gas chambers and chickens were pure oxygen then pure CO2 then both were hung and bled out while unconscious.
USDA has cameras to watch that the pigs are humanely slaughtered, from the truck to the holding pens to the butina gas chambers.
The gas chambers had to be kept at 99% pure CO2 at the final stage, the footage you'll see floating around was due to poor maintenance of the CO2 heating system.
We had to shut down all production once we hit 98% as lower concentrations wouldn't put a pig under quick enough, we never had this issue because animal welfare was pretty big where I worked and USDA watched the system.
For the pigs that couldn't walk on their own they were quarantined and if they didn't recover they were bolt gunned and sent straight to rendering which is the base for most pet foods.
I just came to see if these were any good, don't really care what they're made of.
