    I’m vegan and this is so obviously not an issue ethically. Never mind that vastly more plants need to be harvested to feed livestock, this is a chemical response that is in no way similar to the pain an animal feels.

    Go cut your lawn and then kill baby cow and try to tell me it’s the same.

      i don’t think this is true. many breeds are ruminants, and no plants are harvested for them at all, as they graze. i don’t think it’s strictly true that any plant ever needs to be harvested to be fed to livestock.
