This is moronic, veggie burgers have been a thing for decades!
Should we call them sparkling patties instead?

This is some real dumb shit (something like this got through in France a short while ago, I remember the fake pork meat brand *La Vie* talking about it)

> The European Parliament (EP) has voted to ban the use of words like “burger” or “steak” to describe their plant-based variants. The 355-247 majority vote is seen as a victory for livestock farmers who say the labels threaten their industry and livelihoods.
“Steak” is already a vague descriptor. There are beefsteaks, fish steaks, and pork steaks, but apparently “veggie steaks” are too confusing to consumers and therefore harm those poor farmers.
Next these idiots are going to ban “peanut butter” as a name because consumers might confuse it with actual butter.
