>If I make a chicken patty from a caged chicken that's indistinguishable from organic, free-range chickens, does it matter that it came from a cage? Can I sell it as 'organic, free range chicken patties'? >Of course it matters. Consumers have a fundamental right to know what it is that they're buying. Yeah, I didn't say they don't have a right to know. I asked what is the line where something goes from Meat matter to plant based meat matter, and whether that matters. But I'll bite. Do you know where your food comes from? And do you have a right to know? As I understand it, supply chains, including food are largely proprietary and not usually disclosed. You certainly don't have that right with prepared food (restaurant doesn't need to tell you what is in everything and where it came from), or minimally, they don't need to volunteer it or list it on the plate/menu. So on this point: >Consumers have a fundamental right to know what it is that they're buying. I would argue they actually don't.
