    Or.

    We could tackle multiple problems at once. Why does it have to be a this-or-that thing?

      This is in a very literal way not a problem though. They were just bribed by the meat industry.

      Because resources must be prioritized. There simply are more pressing matters to tend to.

      This is a non-issue and should have the lowest priority as it’s pandering to a lobby and will likely result in backfiring because more creative names will pop up, possibly leading to even more acceptance of vegan products 😁

      I’m paying 50% income taxes to pay for a bunch of cronies to chitchat about this bullcrap. Meanwhile they just scraped the money to shelter homeless people during winter

      I’m totally in favour of solving multiple problems at once.

      Personally, I do not view this as a problem. My issue is with the EU Parliament wasting time with this in place of anything that I perceive as an actual problem.

      If you think that calling veggie burgers “burgers” is a problem worth their time and effort, more power to you 👍
