Terms relating to names of species or groups e.animal species or animal morphology and anatomyare also prohibited when marketing or promoting a product containing plant proteins.
Some terms may be used to refer to food products. “of animal origin, which may contain vegetable proteins”, subject to the maximum percentage of plant ingredients.
These are products containing plant ingredients “They are not a substitute for animal products.but are added as an addition to the latter in the context of these montages.”
