    The Shocking Truth Behind Vegetarianism

    Inside the secret world of vegetable madness. We expose the seedy underbelly of the vegetable-industrial complex.

    Just because vegetables don't have sensory organs, homes with flat screen TV's, or nervous systems then somehow vegetables don't feel things? WRONG.

    A recent study by Bovine Studies, a Washington, DC based think tank, concluded that vegetables "feel as much sensation, if not more, than a cow." The researchers also found, "veggies have an amazing capacity for empathy, way more than cows."

    When hooked up to a heart rate monitor and shown a series of graphic imagery, vegetables reacted with a calm, almost zen-like, acceptance of the world around them. By contrast, the control group of cows grew increasingly excited by the scenes of human suffering.

    Researchers concluded that the cows "exhibited a feral lust for blood rarely found outside the shark or sharknado families."

    Study: "Vegetables linked to violent insanity"

    Growing evidence suggests that people who commit violent crimes are an astonishing nine-million percent as likely to have eaten a vegetable that day as people who have not.

    "Obviously, if you don't count the deceased, it changes the numbers a bit. But I think the statistics speak for themselves," said Wayne Steerman, a spokesman for Bovine Studies.

    Cow-related terrorism a threat national security?

    "Cow sympathizers are putting American lives at risk," continued Steerman, reclining in his leather chair.

    Islamo-fascists and vegetarians are both well-known for their consumption of vegetables. It is, perhaps, the defining aspect of both groups.

    The study concluded that "consuming meat may be the only cure for vegetarianism."
