Yet I find it disturbing when I buy something that contains astonishing animal products.
E.g. I bought some truffle mayonaise. I expect it to contain eggs, but not fish. Indeed, after getting home and reading the fine print, it said anchovies were used. WTF.
Ramen noodles are also a game of chance. Big Chinese writing, a pic of veg on noodles, then the very fine print often buries the use of sea creatures. I spend a lot of time reading a huge list of ingredients (without a magnifying glass) in attempt to be diligent… and I still get burnt.
The injustice of accidentally buying veg that someone expects to be meat is far less of an injustice than the inverse of that. Yet the EU is fixated on regulating veg suppliers.



This is the dumbest fight ever, EU.
Imagine how much money and time was spent on putting this into law.
Shut the fuck up and let people call things what they are similar to if they want.
This article has all of them, and… It’s not as bad as it seems, to be honest. https://www.greenqueen.com.hk/eu-veggie-burger-ban-plant-based-meat-names-vegan-labelling/
“Burger” and “sausage” was in the original proposal, but was fortunately rejected.
it’s not a “fight”, they are behind this decision ☞ https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fédération_des_entreprises_de_charcuterie_traiteur
literally a meat lobby
