Well fruits are more or less the eggs of plants. Their still technically a body part of a plant your eating.

Also I can't believe no one's touched on the sentience then. So unless the definition I use is wrong (and ergo the definition I've read about for ages) sentience is something only inherent to humans because only we are fully self-aware of our surroundings and ourselves unlike animals who just eat, sleep, and poop their entire lives.

But enough of silly definitions.
