Eat fruits, the plants give those to you specifically to eat.

In the same way that cultists give human sacrifices to Cthulhu specifically to eat.

I'm pretty sure the fruits are screaming too.

The whole deal is that we get to eat the fruit, and in return we provide the seeds within with a nice nitrogen-rich deposition nice and far from the parent plant.

It's not a death cult, it's a sex cult. The fruits might be screaming, but not in pain
