I'm genuinely interested, I'm having trouble seperating plants from animals.

And please, I don't really need to hear it from anyone that plants don't have feelings, Veganism isn't about plants, whatever else you've got to say to shoot me down...

I'd just like to hear from any fruitarians or anyone with experience in it please happy

EDIT: Sorry, should've pointed out that it's not the health side of things I'm concerned about either.

I'm not a fruitarian, but I looked it up. It seems�unhealthy. But then again, before I actually researched properly, Veganism seemed unhealthy.

If you're going along the lines of plants have feelings, you're going to find it very difficult. I'm sure it's doable, most things are.

i was just thinking wouldnt it hurt if the fruit was pulled off the tree's, that is if they feel pain?

You would probably have to wait for the fruit to fall off the tree by itself, and collect it from the ground...maybe? lol.

I'm pretty interested in a fruitarian diet! happy

I don't know about you, but sometimes I do get upset when a plant is chopped (not that I'm saying plants feel pain or anything) especially trees >< (I think I'm just in love with nature too much xD ~ weirdo)
So I at least want to try it for a while and see how I feel xD

Are you interested in consuming only fruits that have already fallen from the tree/plant or from plants who's fruit falls.. If that makes sense?

I don't think it would be unhealthy. You could just move the vegetable/fruit setup into your backyard so you know where things are coming from. happy

Its just that is what plants are really for. I am NOT trying to spike up an argument ok? Just saying my opinion�

PLants -> impala -> lion -> plants

Circle of live

Vegan:

plants -> us -> plants ect

With the way we humans are, though, we have destroyed nearly every beautiful thing on the earth.

We are not meant to chop down rainforests and destory habitats, no way.

Do we have any here?
