    Seems like a relatively pro-consumer policy for so many people to be upset about it. They’re not banning Beyond burgers or mushroom steak. It’s still going to taste the same and have the same distribution network.

    They just have to alter the label. In the US a “slider”, “whopper”, “quarter pounder”, and “baconator” are among the most popular burgers and not one of them needs the word burger in it’s marketing.

    Sure, it’s not really solving a problem, but it’s ensuring more informative labeling. Proprietary phone charging cables weren’t a real problem either, but it felt like everyone was glad when the EU standardized it.
