  • The EU's post-Brexit deal could require rebranding of British foods such as marmalade and Pot Noodles.
  • Marmalade could be renamed "citrus marmalade" to distinguish it from non-citrus spreads.
  • Pot Noodles may lose meat-related terms despite plant-based ingredients.
  • The UK's snack sector, worth £5.4 billion, fears the impact of these rules.
  • EU labeling changes are anticipated, though the bloc dropped bans on plant-based terms like sausages.
