How do 'beyond meat' and 'plant based' communicate 'there is absolutely no meat in this product'? They do not in the English lexicon within my head.


"Beyond Meat" is the brand name, and I suspect that's perfectly clear to people. No one buying "Land O'Lakes" butter expects to open the box and find a diorama of Minnesota inside.

I also suspect people who deem beef burgers "plant-based" on a colloquial level are few and far between.


Assuming I am a person, 'beyond meat' is not perfectly clear to people.
