Why is their a subcategory in Food&Drinks called "Pulses"? Are you eating it while it's still alive?
A pulse is part of the Legume family and is therefore food.
A legume is a plant in the family Fabaceae, or the fruit or seed of such a plant. Legumes are grown agriculturally, primarily for their grain seed called pulse, for livestock forage and silage, and as soil-enhancing green manure.
