The mental acrobatics to frame this as some German effort to claim cultural heritage over the dish... The main pushback on this did not come from the German ministry, but from the fast food restaurants, which are almost exclusively operated by people with Turkish roots. I would actually appreciate a return to the meat made from higher quality beef slices instead of the modern ground meat abominations, but your comment is just an insanely biased take on the proposal. Also, "Frankfurter Würstchen" is only protected by origin inside of Germany, not at the EU-level and Sausage has been around since ancienct times. This kind of arbitrary bullshit about origins, cultural heritage and drawing meaningless lines in the sand is exactly what the EU PDO is often criticized for.
