Not having that kind of emotional attachment to plants (which I seem to be able to kill just by looking at them sideways, even though I attempt plant ownership with the best of intentions), I don't feel so bad about consuming them. And, same goes for fish. That may change in future; I don't know.

I hope you don't mind but these are my sentiments exactally.
For me eating a carrot does not envoke the same feelings as eating cow. But that may have to do with what I saw coming home from the Grand Canyon. I know my red meat consumption dropped drastically after that.

Oh heck no.
And I'm not getting rid of my leather boots or suede coats. And that's OK.
