This is one of the most common things people say when they have no way of defending their behavior. "Don't plant lives matter?"

Plants are not sentient, for one. But you knew that. You were just being obtuse because it's easier than challenging yourself.

But to the root of your question, let's talk some simple plant biology. Most of the time, you're eating the fruit of the plant. This is a piece of the plant which can be removed without hurting or killing the plant! It contains seeds. The plant has evolved this part of itself for you to eat so will spread its seed. They do not feel pain when you pick them. They are distributing their seed. So basically, when you pick an apple you're giving an orgasm to an apple tree. What could be kinder to plants than that?

Meanwhile, pork chops don't grow back the following season.
