1. "@@LEADER@@, this is ridiculous! If I, a well informed consumer, can be confused by this misleading packaging, then so can your average Joe! The meat alternative industry has just gone too far!" hollers @@RANDOMNAME@@, shoving an empty box of veggie burgers into your face, labelled as "meatless" in small print, with the second syllable of the word in even smaller print next to it. @@HE@@ simultaneously waves a box of real burgers in his other hand. "When I think of burgers, I think of good, juicy, @@DENONYM@@ beef! Maybe those weird turkey burgers, too, but not THIS!" @@HE@@ continues to shout. "Ban the use of the term 'burger' for all products that don't actually contain real meat!"

2. "Look, the bottom line is that consumers can make these choices on their own," says slick-talking Meatless Meat CEO @@RANDOMNAME@@. "And who knows how many of my customers- I mean fellow vegetarians- wouldn't buy my products anymore if I was forced to label them something like- something like- Vegetable Circles!" @@HE@@ screeches. "Oh, the horror! Allow my company to call our products what we want, so long as they don't infringe on copyrights. Please, if you have any sense! Now..." @@HE@@ continues, grabbing one of the burgers off of your desk. "Let's try one of our delicious Improbable Burgers. DAMN IT! This is one of the meat ones!", @@HE@@ finishes, as @@HE@@ chomps into a burger he had mistaken for his own.

3. Your aide, @@RANDOMNAMEFEMALE@@, comes up and whispers into your ear. "You know... maybe it would be best to keep this debate on the back burner for a bit. Anyways: let the sides fight a bit while we add increasing regulations on the quality and environmental impact of their products. I've been looking for ways for us to do so for a while, and this presents the perfect opportunity. Make sure that the emission levels from the industry are low, keep the packaging environmentally friendly, that sort of thing."
