Consumerism
The idea that plants use CO2 and sunlight to make their food isn't correct in one sense - it's actually the biological consumer's way of considering the process. If there were politics of biological consumption, it's the consumerist point of view.
What plants do is interact with the environment in such a way that their substance comes from an internal interaction of CO2, water and the minerals that flow in from the roots. They aren't making "food," they are making their bodies. The carbohydrate is just part of their soma, not their food.
Food is material you pull into your soma from the outside to extract energy from it. So, maybe photons from the sun are plant food, but the sugars they make aren't. The sugars they make are our food.
