these are not burgers…they are SANDWICHES as they contain vegan PATTIES on them. End the use of necrovoristic terminology when describing something that is devoid of meat or “burger”.
The definition of meat doesn’t just mean animal flesh. Just because people only know the one definition doesn’t makes it’s use incorrect. Merriam-Webster states the definition of meat as: the flesh of an animal used as food : a type of meat : the part of something (such as a nut) that can be eaten : food; especially solid food as distinguished from drink : the edible part of something as distinguished from its covering (as a husk or shell).
