A Stampede of Meatless Products Overrun Grocery Store Meat Cases
Have my doubts that this is as much a real issue as it is people upset over change.  When I buy &#x27;beefless beef crumbles&#x27;, I&#x27;m not confused.  I&#x27;d be willing to bet the number of people that are actually confused rounds to zero.  As much as I love the idea of veggie based meat parity, its still not there so even if someone was confused once (which probably doesn&#x27;t really happen), they won&#x27;t be confused the second time.<p>Also, at what point is the label about the content rather than the source?<p>If I make an impossible burger thats indistinguishable from an animal product, does it matter that it came from plants?<p>What if I clone cells from meat tissue into steaks?  Is that meat?  It still puts these guys out of business...<p>Change hurts, but pretending this is a naming issue is just posturing by an industry that uses tons of land for grazing, for growing (multiple states in the midwest dedicated to corn for feed..., and has been shown to treat animals horribly.  Why not just say &#x27;what are we going to do&#x27; instead of some straw man about semantics and marketplace confusion that doesn&#x27;t really hold water.
