    This sounds a bit like people demanding that almond milk should be called “nut juice”.

    You mean America’s dairy farmers?

      If you look closel, instead of calling it nut juice they just invented a new word: Almondmilk. Check your fridge (if you chug nut juice). The lawyer that came up with this deserves a dinosaur sticker on their hand.

        It’s all theater and distraction. Coconut milk has been around an awful long time with no issue. Same with milk of magnesia.

        The dairy industry only started caring when the term milk started getting used for viable alternatives to dairy milk. Industrial lobbying is all about protecting market share and that’s it.

      Mostly, yeah, but there are also kind of meatmaxxing/proteinmaxxing types that usually simp for the dairy industry, too.

      An example would be any fucking moron that calls other people “soy boys” - highly likely to be one of these people that take issue with almond/soy/oat milk…
