I can't resist saying that if we were still part of the EU, there would be legislation to cover this!!

As a lifelong vegetarian, this has been going on for years and it's now worse in pursuit of profits. It's just attempting to attract meat eaters who might want to flirt with being veggie. So much processed food these days and it's a free market after all, what our current masters are keen on! I feel quite savage with the irony!

Chicken pieces are made in factories too.

I have a flyer from a local supermarket promoting meat free January and was horrified to see “Vegetarian Chicken Pieces” advertised (£1.99 for 175g).
Is this allowed? Am I being unreasonable to feel that the manufacturers should be compelled to state something like “Chicken Substitute”
I can imagine people picking it up by mistake and not realising they were buying artificial meat made in a factory. Yuk!
