    Consumers readily know what a ‘burger’ is, and will readily understand that it is meat-free if ‘plant-based’ is used as a prefix to it. Plant-based burgers are intended to be substitute products for meat-based burgers, so disallowing the use of the word ‘burger’ will inevitably confuse consumers as to the nature of such products. Clear distinction is possible without directly favoring the meat lobby.
