It clearly has nothing to do with the dairy lobby pushing hard everywhere to prevent people from switching to ecologically and humanely better alternative because they don’t want to lose the fat subsidies they get from the government.
They try to push these legislations under the guise that it could induce the consumer in error, my ass.
Let’s blame fun cartoons instead.
Let’s not forget the cost with their lives the cows have to bear for us to get milk.
Forcefully impregnated, their babies taken away to be slaughtered as veal or to become milk cows. And all that for a fraction of their lifespan only to be slaughtered when their milk production starts to decline…

At least sometimes there is a bit of push back: https://www.just-food.com/news/eu-rejects-dairy-lobby-proposals-to-restrict-plant-based-alternatives/

Hey thanks for the precision. The frustration was not directed at you directly, moreso at the argument I thought you were making, I apologize for that. I have just heard this fallacious argument so many time in real life used seriously that I react strongly to it.

NGL spy milk is fire in coffee
I still (currently) prefer milk (lactose free (specifically dairy gold fit)) in my tea though
Spy milk just has the wrong texture for tea IMO
Edit: Meant soy but it got autocorrected to spy. I’m going to leave it as it’s too funny to not.

Or maybe just because they aren’t actually milk
I guess words can’t be used in different context, especially when the plant-based alternatives are drop-in replacement for animal milks and the term has been used for hundreds of year to describe both plant-based milky substances and animal secretions.
Milk of the poppy, milk thistle, milk of magnesia…
it’s almost like the word means a white liquid, of which mammalian breast milk is one type.
I have a few questions, but I’m not sure I want the answers.
Let the curiosity flow through you
What’s with the candy corn? 🌽
Candy corn is a brood parasite who plants its young in almond nests to leech off of their resources and be raised as one of their own.
because the candy corn grows quicker than almonds, it will instinctively push the almondlings out of the nest leaving them to starve, thereby culling the competition to its parasitic consumption of unknowing mother’s milk
