The original intent of that bill was to ban plant-based alternatives from using commonly understood terms and phrases.
It’s not like the EU banning phrases like “soy milk” on packaging was an unintended consequence of some kind of “common sense” law being applied where it shouldn’t be.
According to EU legislature you can say “coconut milk”, I guess it’s ok since it doesn’t compete with dairy products. However soy/oat/almond m*lk is literally the antichrist and must be defeated.
I meant that jokingly, as in, European Court of Justice is scared of plant-based milk. The way I see it ECJ put in a lot of effort to solve a nonexistent problem, and presented it as “protecting consumers”.

The commonly understood term for plant butter is margarine
When you’re at the shop can you grab some peanut margarine and coconut white liquid?

Sorry, I struggle to read tone from messages sometimes - do you genuinely feel that way? and if you do, why?

I understand, and I agree with you completely! Thank you for the clarification, and have a great evening!
Thanks for the comment, but I’m not at all interested in getting into that argument. Hope you have a great day though!
