In the real world, I believe Ivy would be a fruitarian who could also photosynthesize in some forms. I love this topic so much and have talked about it many times in depth: And when she does, she and us will no longer have to ponder and worry about her unusual diet.Ĥ thoughts on “ So….what does Poison Ivy Eat?” In doing so, she will no longer have to sacrifice plants, by eating delicious salads, to complete her quest of plant domination. She wants to eliminate that final connection to her humanity and embrace that final step to plant hood.
It’s probably the main reason why she’s trying to become a fully photosynthetic organism. It’s similar if you were to slaughter a cow for the hell of it and not for the nutrients it can provide you.ĭoes she feel bad? Very likely. A rose with its petals being pulled out, on the other hand, is unnatural and has no overall purpose. I think in this case, when she eats plants she knows they don’t mind being eaten by her because they have accepted it. She can fuel herself by sacrificing a small amount of plants in order to save the greater biosphere. I think she has convinced herself that her diet is for the greater good. Her goal in saving plants from humanity can only be sustained if she eats other organisms. I believe she has found plants, by communicating to them, who were willing to be eaten by her. Whether or not this is true is hard to say but one thing for sure is that she believes it. Poison Ivy believes she can communicate to plants.
