Arg:. An egg that has not been fertilized cannot result in birth of a new animal so it is vegetarian.

Ans: Is a virgin or a woman who cannot have children a vegetable ? A rooster that has been castrated ( called a capon) so that he no longer produces sperm , is he a vegetable ? Is one’s species to be defined by whether they can produce life ? Is the yellow/white in the egg similar to human placental fluid or not ? Yes. So which part resembles a potato ?

Arg: An egg has no more senses than a plant so no pain is involved.

Ans: A plant probably has more senses than an egg – whether chicken or human egg. But that still doesn’t make the egg a plant since it is not senses that define a species. Would you say that a man in a coma or a newborn that is mentally and physically deformed is a carrot ?

Arg: It's not slaughter to eat an egg. It is simply the base nutrients and proteins that are used to construct the chick.
