Plants Can Tell When They’re Being Eaten
 

Eating a leaf off a plant may not kill it, but that doesn't mean the plant likes it. The newest study to examine the intelligence (or at least behavior) of plants finds that plants can tell when they're being eaten -- and send out defenses to stop it from happening.

I prefer to hear screaming sounds when I dig into my salad.  That's how I know it's fresh.

It looks like the idea is plants may have a sense of hearing, but can only hear one noise. This is really weird science.
