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.
