Absolutely OK. If "something something X" is the name of your product, it needs to contain X to a certain degree. If there was no strawberry in strawberry jam, you would complain. If there was no cinnamon in a cinnamon bun, this would be wrong, too.
The term "Vegan Chicken Chips" for a product that does not contain chicken is simply like "Apple Sauce" without apples.
Rocky mountain oysters contain no oysters. Head cheese is not cheese. Hen of the woods is not a bird. Welsh rabbit includes 0% rabbit. Ants on a log, Cowboy caviar, Bear claws... refried beans are.. gasp.. only fried once.
Its all made up and the points don't matter, until you start threatening profits.
Jerusalem Artichokes are neither artichokes nor from Jerusalem.
