I understand it for terms that are unequivocally an animal product, like eggs and pork. But burgers and sausages can be made from so many things that it makes it really clear this is just a bribe for animal farmers. Even steak isn't necessarily from cows since you can have things like tuna steak, so why would a plant steak be any different?
Last time I checked tuna was an animal.
I said it's not a cow. Steak generally refers to cow meat but if we can use it for fish, why not plant-based foods too?
Editing to add, OP seems to just be trolling everyone in the comments on the other threads so I'm just gonna block and move on .
You never head a mushroom steak? And portobello burgers are amazing. The only difference is that it has a portobello instead of meat, but it's obviously a burger. What should it be called?
