HSUS or PETA (or someone else with loads of money) should organize a major cookie (or other non-meat-based item) bakeoff or other contest such that each group (vegans and non-vegans) got to pick the tastiest cookies in their category. Then put those head to head in a blind taste test for non-vegans. And by blind I mean that the tasters would not be informed that one cookie was vegan and the other wasn't, they would just be asked to evaluate which one tastes better. That would be some good PR for vegan baking and would be virtually unchallengeable.
