A European court has overturned France's ban on labelling vegetarian products "steak", "sausage" or other terms traditionally reserved for meat, a measure the French government imposed to protect its livestock industry in the face of growing competition.
French decrees, the latest from February of this year, have restricted the use of names such as "bacon", "escalope", "ham", "filet" and "prime rib" to products of animal origin.
