So I was at a family dinner and my partners sister brought up oysters and asked why I didn’t eat them because I had just had the central nervous system eating plants versus animal conversation.
Apparently oysters do not have a nervous system? In the end the conversation went really well in many ways and she seemed to understand my stance on no harm and how I can be a healthy vegan and all etc...but It turned into me going home and looking up info about oysters.
I found this article: Consider the Oyster
http://www.slate.com/articles/life/food/2010/04/consider_the_oyster.html
I know that this seems wrong for me personally and really disgusting to be honest. Its still eating a body of a animal but I’m interested In what others have to say.
What do others think? And have you heard this argument before? I feel like it came out of no where.
