The French government issued a decree Tuesday banning the term “steak” on the label of vegetarian products, saying it was reserved for meat alone.

    No I’m not going vegan we should both be able to make out food choices and not have to second guess. That’s my whole fucking point about not mislabelling food.

    I’m telling a vegan that reading ingredients could be even harder if we don’t regulate and use the right words. The fact that you had it hard doesn’t mean everyone else should.

      The ingredient list is already regulated. We could make it easier for all with a “animal product” label but at the moment it is only the animal industry which is lobbying for restrictive product names. I am against restrictions of names but in favor for a clear declaration of ingredients.
