Pressure to ban meat labels for plant-based products comes from Europe's livestock farmers.

    “heavily processed plant pulp” will do.

      So then a ton of animal meat products needs to have their names changed too “heavily processed animal pulp” too? Because that’s what they are.

        Nope. They are delicious mince meat burgers. Which reminds me, it is Fri, time to have one.

          What is wrong with you? Putting so much effort into defending hurting other animals.

          Imagine being such a pathetic person.

        No, as opposed to “tasty beef/pork/chicken/turkey burger”. You know, a natural product. Which reminds me of tomorrow’s shopping - steak tartare it is.

          There’s not a damn thing that’s “natural” about ground meat.
