State-level attempts to regulate plant-based meat alternatives’ labeling has followed a familiar pattern. States pass a law restricting what plant-based companies may (or may not) say in their labeling and marketing. Then, federal courts enjoin their enforcement.
However, a recent decision from an Oklahoma federal court bucked that trend, holding that the plant-based claims at issue were potentially deceptive. Whether the court’s decision represents a one-off blip in the battles over plant-based labeling remains to be seen. Regardless, the decision will become an important citation for proponents and opponents alike.

Sorry, good ol’ boys, but it’s time to stop laughing at vegans. A plant-based diet is no longer the tree-hugging, granola-crunching butt of the joke. Veganism is a lifestyle embraced by millions lifestyle website WTVOX estimates that there are roughly 78 million vegans worldwide and numbers are on the rise. According to The Vegan Society, “retail sales of plant-based meat grew 31 percent, while total U.S. retail meat sales grew just 5 percent” between 2017 and 2019, and in recent years the “consumption of plant milk increased by 61 percent while consumption of cow’s milk decreased by 22 percent.”
