‘Veggie discs’ to replace veggie burgers in EU crackdown on food labels

Veggie burgers are for the chop, a Brussels committee has decreed, to be replaced by the less palatable-sounding “veggie discs”.

Ah yes, because beef comes off the cow in the form of a burger? 🙄

EricAndrieuEU If you want to start getting picky, you better start labeling every non-beef patty as a disc. Chicken discs, Turkey discs, venison discs, etc. Or just drop this ridiculous fight that isn't worth anyone's time.

The EU are vege-idiots

why can't the EU stop banking scams abuse wage crimes and more but eat great food is a crime more than stealing money and then you can eat with the rich abusers like the BMFA who say stealing money is fine and abuse people is cool

Dear MEPs, please resist this awful terminology. Veggie Burgers forever. The meat industry cannot claim the burger all to itself.

Oh, I see now why people want to get Out......

What a 'crackdown'! Surely I can't be forced to eat that noun?!

I assume they will be banning the use of the name for all burgers that are not made in Hamburg then?

You spend 3 years battling brexit and talking up the good of the EU then you get this! A Frenchman EricAndrieuEU dictating to Europe what to all intents and purposes a US invention must be called for 'clarity'! Meat lobby not involved!? Why waste taxpayers money discussing it?

EU accepts huge bribe from lobby, then uses violence to ban something perfectly harmless. Bastards.

And people wonder why we voted to leave!

Will we change the name of hotdogs too? Horribly misleading! 🌭🐶

Sensible. I bet veggies wouldn't like seeing 'lettuce'that was really made from bacon.

A veggie pattie in a bun sounds better !! And by the way all the veggos of the world what do you think is used to fertilise the veggies that you eat !!! Even organic growers use tons of it !! Poo 💩 from animals ! Can’t get away from them at all !!

Why would you name veggie products after meat anyway? I never understood that. Surely, you don’t want your veggie products be associated with the meat industry...but tbf, disc is a stupid name! What about Veggie Stack?

About time eh? Seitan worshipers 👿

European Parliaments Agriculture Committee preside over DefraGovUK preside over foodgov Article 17 Food Labelling Information Regulation Get it done. DoYourJob Starters: VeganSausageRoll BeyondMeat (Veggie) Burger Impossible Burger Milk Alts: Koko Coconut Milk Coyo Kephir

Why just veggie products, tho? The turkey burger, salmon burger and lamb burger should be banned under this logic.

Well gosh, maybe Leave was the right choice.

What kind of animal is a ‘burger’?

Sooooo, “Veggie Hamdisk”? Bürger von Hamburg won’t be happy with this.

Oh no! Dumb people who can’t read might accidentally not eat an animal! THE HORROR!

so fucking stupid, i hope you have turkey discs, and chicken discs. Hamburger is for beef, burgers are for anything not beef. do you wipe the ass of the meat industry as well, fucking pathetic.

Because people will be shocked to find their vegeburger has no dead animals in it.

What about patties? Discs sounds too high tech and certainly doesn’t provide an image of food.

Surely Burger refers to the shape not the ingredients?

Well I was all for remaining in the EU but fuck them and their stupid rules - leave it is!!!!

Why not patty because that's what it is? Disc, what a stupid bloody name. It's always going to be known as a veggie burger anyway.

A 'fake news' report designed to enhance the Brexit appeal.

Blimey, first odd-shaped bananas and now this? Bloody EU!

The world is destroying itself and this parliament spends tax money on debating linguistic representations of food labels.

What now?

Britons will not need visa for trips of up to 90 days in EU zoneWaiver agreed if UK keeps concession also for EU citizens, as most MEPs accept legal label of Gibralter as colony Why a photo of Gibraltar? Brittons don’t need a visa to go there and it won’t be in the EU... 🤔 That's fine! We're boycotting all EU countries! So another Project Fear claim goes down the pan - you'll need a visa to go on holiday in the EU - no you won't if UK agrees to concessions, which would appear as highly likely.
