To all EU Heads of State:

We call on you to reject the ‘veggie burger’ ban and vote no to the proposed amendment on plant based food labeling. We can tell the difference between a burger made of cow or of chickpeas – this is designed to pile on costs and red tape for companies bringing sustainable, plant-based foods to citizens across the continent. Don’t prop up polluting industries – support green innovation and stimulate sustainable choices to protect the planet we all rely on!

EU: Drop the ridiculous ‘veggie burger’ ban!
A strange fight is unfolding in Europe – and the future of food is on the line. 18 Powerful governments are pushing to ban words like “veggie burger” and “plant-based sausage” -- censoring climate-friendly foods just to please the meat lobby.

Germany is standing up for common sense and the future of food. But even the powerful German government is facing an uphill battle -- opposition from a big bloc of other countries and a massive push from corporate lobbying groups.

We can help. If Germany's leaders know they have massive public support they can hold the line in upcoming negotiations -- blocking this absurd ban.

Let’s flood Berlin and other key capitals with a massive call – to block the ban and keep “veggie burgers” on the table. Sign now, and we’ll deliver our call directly to EU negotiators and MEPs before they meet. We won’t let the meat lobby write the rules for our plates, or our planet.
