Even though I live in EU I think the whole system is a one big joke.
I'm sure that they regulate the curvature of the cucumbers all the way in the constitution.
Yes, EU has some extremely silly regulations such as that a cucumber cannot be called a cucumber unless it's between 5 and 15 degrees in curvature.
Too straight - nope not a cucumber.
Too twisted - the same.
It doesn't matter that the vegetable comes from the same branch of the same bush with the 'good' one.
And these regulations are done with spending millions of taxpayers money.
