As a follow-up, in consultations you’ve been involved with, did they put weight on the thoughts on random members of the public, assuming the thoughts were sensible ofc?
Yeah, that’s what I hoped. I couldn’t honestly say that I would care about these labels (cos I don’t eat animal products anyway), but I said stuff like ‘consumers would like to know this’, which I think is true.
That’s interesting!
