Should cauliflower be called 'steak' and soy drinks 'milk'?

gets a lot of flak. All right, it isn’t literally blasted with anti-aircraft fire, but you know what we mean. One ongoing battle involves the use of words. Earlier this year, the European Parliament’s agriculture committee voted to prohibit the terms “burger”, “sausage”, “escalope” and “steak” to describe products that do not contain any meat. It was inspired by the European Court of Justice’s decision in 2017 to ban the use of “milk”, “butter” and “cream” for non-dairy products.

Nor should the parliament’s reforming zeal be restricted to food. Any reference to the European budget should be confined to the money that the commissioner for economic and monetary affairs, Valdis Dombrovskis, keeps on his person in a, or leather purse. Only those banks which carry out their business on wooden benches should be included in the banking union.

Eh!! No, cause cauliflower isn't steak!

In a time where people can be a helicopter as a gender, i don’t see why this can’t be.

No. Because then 'Pig' can be 'Steak' too. And that is not right. Ask any muslim...

If one were to make a case that uncontrolled free expression of ideas is a dangerous and outright bad idea, the fact that cauliflower is being referred to as steak and soy drinks as milk could be an effective example.
