There’s no reason to invent plant milk if you don’t already consume milk. It’s a product that was designed to emulate and replace something else that already exists.
It’s zootopia, most mammal drink milk, so maybe they grow up liking milk and found a way to make one using plant-based material because drinking your neighbours milk is just awkward.
No, they make imitation ice cream now - I’ve seen almond, oat, and coconut milk used. It’s more similar to real ice cream than sorbet is. There’s a noticeable difference but I actually like the imitation ice cream more because it doesn’t have the sour aftertaste I get from milk. The downside is that it’s more expensive; I’ve only ever seen it sold in the premium-priced one-pint containers.
Emm…plant? Plant-based icecream is a thing.

Coconut milk and cream are not uncommon ingredients in southeast Asian cuisine where dairy is an uncommon ingredient.
Dairy is common ingredient in India and we still use coconut milk or cream in some recipes

Do you mean sorbet ?

Good to know. I only knew sorbet as alternative for lactose intolerant.
