“From the perspective of many ethical vegans, the “What about plants?” question sounds absurd. Does the omnivore really believe in plants' rights? More likely, the vegan assumes, the omnivore is suggesting that granting rights to animals is as ridiculous as granting rights to plants. But perhaps the non-vegan sincerely wants to hear the vegan's answer to this seemingly-rhetorical question.”
― Sherry F. Colb, Mind If I Order the Cheeseburger?: And Other Questions People Ask Vegans
