When you were a child, was your food conscious? (In a similar way to stuffed animals, etc.)

Why would it be counscious ? I never ate anything alive, at least not on purpose.

My father was a talented cook; he used to prepare dinner every night. As I got older he challenged my prejudices against certain foods and encouraged me to experiment and grow.
I miss him sometimes.

I would sometimes feel the compulsion to eat certain bits of food to avoid "offending" it or making it feel "left out" because I didn't choose to eat it. I felt that way about non-food objects too though

I remember pondering on the concept as a kid, but I never actually believed it

My dad would “go hunt whoppers”. He’d come home w/ a Burger King bag, panting, saying he’d torn off their arms & legs & that they’re warm because they’re fresh. I was PRETTY sure he was joking.
