I love your idea of labeling animal-based products more honestly. Calling it a 'cow burger' instead of just a 'burger' would certainly help level the playing field with a 'veggie burger.' In fact, the next time I’m at a restaurant, I might say, "I’ll have the veggie burger instead of the cow burger," just to see if the waiter flinches or if the carnivores at my table suddenly rethink their choices.
I love your clarity, as always! So true, every word. And there's also an element of a freedom of speech argument in here as well. It seems to parallel the broader problem we're facing with this freedom under attack in multiple arenas.

This is gold! "A Dying Industry’s Last Stand" - hope so. "Piglet patty, anyone?" Indeed.
