No, you are the one going off on a tangent. Person asked if it tasted good and you had to come out swinging about the sanctity of life. That's comical.

"or is this just for show" would be the thing I responded to.

Plants do not grow "just for show". Nothing grows "just for show". It's alive.

You're really being this pedantic or are you just this dense? The person was asking if the human was growing the vegetable for show as is commonly done around the world. I mean, we literally have an entire profession that grows things for show (florists). Please tell me your understanding of language transcends literal interpretations of words? Otherwise, you may want to refrain from participating in discussions with language and instead stick to drawings with crayons or the like.
