France bans use of meat-like terms in packaging for vegetarian food

quote:

Food producers in France will be forced to think of new ways to describe some of their vegetarian and vegan foods when they are banned from using terms such as “vegetarian sausages”, "vegetarian mince" and “vegan bacon”.

French MPs have voted to outlaw use of such vocabulary, claiming they mislead shoppers.

Firms will no longer be able to use "burger", "steak", "sausage" or “fillet” to describe foods that have no meat in them, such as "ham" slices or "chicken" pies that are made of soya or wheat.

The measure was put forward by MP Jean-Baptiste Moreau, who based his argument on a judgment last year by the European Court of Justice that soya and tofu products could not be marketed as “milk” or “butter”.

Mr Moreau, a farmer and member of President Macron’s En Marche! party tweeted: “It is important to fight against false claims: our products must be designated correctly: the terms #cheese or #steak will be reserved for products of animal origin!”

Refusals to comply with the ban will lead to fines of up to €300,000 (£264,000).

En Marche!, more like Volte Face!

Yeah, I've literally never accidentally bought vegan sausages.

Ouin, ouin, ouin, les milleniaux tuent une autre industrie, je te paris qu'ils preferrent un couscous vegetarien plutot qu'une bonne choucrotte faite avec des vrais saucisses de viande francaises.

It’s a dad pun

The ZAD is the Zone à Défendre, the area that was supposed to become an airport and that was occupied by various left-wing opponents who eventually made it into some sort of commune

Well some time ago Macron’s shock troops evacuated the area and destroyed the communal farms.

That’s why the tag says that Macron is being Bashar in the ZAD, and « à la ZAD » sounds like « al Assad »

So on one hand:
La justice soupçonne M. Bolloré d’avoir aidé deux chefs d’Etat africains à accéder ou se maintenir au pouvoir : Faure Gnassingbé, au Togo, et Alpha Condé, en Guinée. En échange, ces dirigeants auraient favorisé les intérêts économiques de l’homme d’affaires dans leurs pays. Une affaire qui rappelle les habitudes néocoloniales dites de la « Françafrique ».

Bolloré's answer:
"Je ne connais pas le dossier"

Les enquêteurs continuent : ""Si l’on vous indique que nous analysons, nous, en notre position d’enquêteurs, ces dépenses faites au travers d’une facturation intragroupe […] comme des cadeaux faits à Alpha Condé et Faure Gnassingbé, qu’en dites-vous ?""
Vincent Bolloré : ""Je pense que c’est une analyse erronée".
