Title says all. Plant cells are covered by cell wall made of cellulose. The human body doesn’t have the enzyme cellulase to digest it, so why do we eat them? Do they just pass through us? If so, why are they ‘healthy’?

Humans only ate plants out of survival depending on the geographical location where there wasn’t much animal protein around. I don’t think plants want to be eaten, which is why they release “plant defense chemicals” which can be harmful to humans in large amounts.
I don’t see any real reason to eat plants when you can get all of the bioavailable nutrients you need from organic animal products.
