Plant based diets certainly have a much lower risk of food born illness, but it's definitely still possible to get food poisoning from rice that's been left out on the counter, or from lettuce that hasn't been thoroughly washed, just to name two examples.

When I was first dating my partner we shared a green mango salad and both got food poisoning. Each of us nearly shitting our beds later that night was a real bonding experience, a milestone in our relationship. Even food poisoning is better when you're vegan.
