Or would they cast aside their pathetic facade in favor of self-preservation?

Veganism is only able to exist because of the non-sentience of plants. Think about that. If animals were our only source of food, would people give a damn about eating meat?

In other words, Veganism exists because it is convenient.

If such a declaration was made about planet sentience, how long do you think it would take for the vegan movement to crumble?|||well it has been proven by history that most people will compromise their standards in order to survive.

It is against most people's principles to eat family members and friends - however the survivors of the plane crash in the Andes resorted to eating the human flesh of the deceased in order to survive.

What a strange way for you to point out an understandable human contradiction.

Under what circumstances would you starve to death?|||Vegan's only exists because the society/technology we have today allows for it to occur on a large scale without health risks.

The fact that without companies producing food items from fungi (Like Quorn) you will find many people would get sick or have reduced healthiness due to the lack of vital components such as protein which is not found in large quantities within plants.

Not to mention the amount of food you need to eat in order to attain the daily amount of energy will have to be high. Look at all the animals that eat plants only, they spend almost all of their day just eating because plants only provide small amounts of energy. It would be the same for people without the supplements they are able to take and when people eat a lot of plants they can have stomach pains and diarrhoea.

Basically if you put them on an island or God forbid the world got messed up somehow and we revert back to the dark ages they will be jumping right back on meat in no time.|||Maybe ethical vegans would, but I'm a vegan for health purposes, and if they were proven to be as alive as animals, it really wouldn't change their nutritional numbers. I still don't get people who hate vegetarians and vegans- why would it bother you? Go eat a steak and try to focus on something else. Better yet, focus your hatred towards Justin Bieber.|||I'm not a vegan, and I don't think I ever could be, but I do know that people who are vegans have a host of different reasons for choosing their diet. Some do it for health reasons, some are concerned with the environment and sustainability.

I also don't think that veganism is "convenient" in any sense of the word. Again, I don't think I could do it. It would narrow my choice of restaurants. It would change the way I travel, shop, and socialize.

I'm not pro-veganism by any means. I could really give a sh&t how other people eat. You clearly care a great deal, though. I wonder why.|||The line separating plants from animals, and the sentient from the non-sentient is a pretty nebulous boundary. They would probably fall back on that old, "anything without a face" designation. So that means, if I should suffer a serious accident or cancer, and my face becomes horribly disfigured... !|||Vegans actually already give up their principles to an extent. Any time you buy tofu, corn, wheat, whatever from a grocery store, you contribute to animal death.

Ever seen a combine harvester? Look it up on google images. Its basically a bigass tractor with a bunch of blades on it. Want to guess what happens any time a cute little bunny rabbit family is caught up in those blades? I'll give you a hint:it dies.

Also, to make room for that grocery store, a forest had to be cut down, and because of that, many animals died because they lost their habitat. Deer, foxes, bears, birds, wolves, all sorts of beautiful animals.

If someone eats nothing but beef, at least they aren't killing any rabbits. Which would you rather have die?
