The measure was introduced by French conservative lawmaker Celine Imart, who argued it would prevent confusion with traditional meat products.

The issue I have with that though is that “sausage” and “burger” are extremely generic terms.
I don’t think it makes sense to protect them in the same way that we protect “brie” or something like that.
There isn’t even one type of burger or sausage, as they can be made from any kind of meat (beef, chicken, pork, etc). We then differentiate by calling them a “chicken sauage” or a “pork sausage”. Why would “vegetarian/plant-based sausage” be any different?
I would just label it as: “Veggie-Product that looks like Burger” 😂
“The veggie-product formerly known as Burger”
“I cannot believe it’s not BURGER”
