In this episode of the Vegans Explore Podcast, Sean A. Russell breaks down the European Union’s renewed push to restrict plant based and lab grown meat companies from using familiar terms like burger, milk, yogurt, and cheese. We explore what this proposal means for everyday shoppers, Vegan businesses, and the future of sustainable food innovation.

You will hear how Big Ag is pressuring lawmakers, why Paul McCartney has stepped into the conversation, and how this decision could influence food labeling laws in the United States. We also clarify why the proposed rules would not apply to the United Kingdom now that it is no longer part of the EU.

If adopted, this legislation could reshape store shelves and slow the growth of plant based alternatives at a critical time. Tune in to learn what is at stake and how global food culture may shift in response.
