The FDA regulates the labeling of food and for obvious public health reasons (allergies) people are interested in having a commonly understood definition of food products. I wouldn't be surprised if the FDA doesn't send a strongly worded letter to these companies regarding their labeling to ensure that they are not misleading consumers. When it comes to plant based products it is likely they will win, when it comes to lab grown meat it's a bit of a gray area.
As an example here is the FDA definition of peanut butter:
https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfcfr/CFRSearch.cfm?fr=164.150&SearchTerm=peanut%20butter https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfcfr/CFR...
