@theipaper: Should the EU be voting on burgers? Lawmakers at the European Parliament voted 355 to 247 to amend regulations, giving farmers a stronger negotiating position and reducing their reliance on powerful food supply chain actors. The final regulation, negotiated between parliament, EU governments, and the Commission, will include a ban on terms like veggie-burger or vegan sausage. Previously, the EU defined dairy products like milk, butter, cream, yoghurt, and cheese as "products secreted by mammary glands," so oat milk is called oat drink. #EU #Russia #Ukraine #Veganburger #Veganfood #Plantbased

Waste of time. Burger is just a pattie in a bun. It doesn't matter if it's beef, chicken, pork, halloumi, chickpea, meat alternate. It's irrelevant.

Shouldn’t they be focusing on the housing crisis and cost of living?

While a genocide take place, people are starving, groceries are unaffordable… but wait … the name of a product that saves animals is so important to the europian parliament???

Do they not understand it’s easier for vegans if it stays named “burger” or “sausage”? It makes it clear to me what’s it supposed to be replacing

Brings me back to when they banned the term milk for vegan milk bc regular milk buyer would get confused (while coconut milk exists since forever but it was never an issue)

Vegan food packaging also looks so different to non vegan stuff. I have no idea how people can confuse it. Not only are the colours typically different (often green), the "vegan" label is so clear. The name is clearly different. You have to literally not look at what you buy to confuse it.

i wonder if the same people who think this is an issue refuse to watch films (if they're made using digital cameras) or use computer folders (since they have nothing to do with actual folders) 😅

But why are we then allowed to have a hamburger, chicken burger, fish burger, but if its vegan, no no vegan burger… does the word burger = meat, cause then I think we can no longer have fish burgers either? Cause fish is not meat 🤔 its from a living creature sure, but … what is it with the word burger that means we can’t put the word vegan in front of it like with every other burger? 🤔

This has never been an issue before... as long as its labelled what it is "chicken burger" "hamburger" "bean burger", why does it matter? 'Burger' has been used synonymously for decades.

Meanwhile there are sweets called „katzenzungen“ (cats tongues), „schweineohren“ (pig ears), „Goldbären“ (gold bears) and „kalter Hund“ (cold dog) none of those consist of the things in their name yet a soy protein patty is confusing💀
