Sentient vegetables would be a serious problem for vegetarians like myself. We might starve to death unless we were given artificial nutrition or somesuch.
“The time has come,” the Walrus said, “to talk of many things. Of shoes and ships and sealing wax, of cabbages and kings. Of why the sea is boiling hot and whether pigs have wings.” (Preface to a feast.)
Actually, carrots are sentient. Flatworms are sentient. Jellyfish are sentient. “Sentient” means “possessing senses”. The word meant here is “sapient”. I know, I know—the damage is irreparable by now, but I can still be angry about a couple of perfectly good words being lynched.
