It's reasonable to give your own species preferable treatment, particularly if it has demonstrable benefit, as the pursuit of equal opportunity does. Besides, I would equate slavery to reprehensible farming practices, rather than consumption itself. The human race consumes the work of all individual humans, what we did in the past was treat some sections of humanity reprehensibly, and we now strive to treat all sections of society more fairly and kindly. Equally, we should do the same with farming practices, but ultimately will still consume produce the same way society "consumes" work.
Would you agree that it is the mark of an evolved society to treat non human animals more kindly & fairly too?
Nettles.Things that have defence or warning mechanisms don't want to be eaten.
The smell of grass.
The thorn of a rose.
The spines of a cactus.
Those are plants.
Hurt or humanely euthanized?
Do you think vets putting animals to sleep is also cruel?
Euthanasia is the reflief of pain & suffering. The meat industry is killing healthy animals to eat, do you see the difference between that and helping an injured dog die?
Do you think this looks humane?

Peaches, before we bred it out of them.
So you eat cactus, grass & rose thorns as well as being making your decisions on ethics on what a dinosaur would do?
Do you think plants feel pain?
