CALLING LIQUID FROM PLANTS "MILK" IS NOT A NEW CONCEPT YOU FUCKING MORON AND PEOPLE AREN'T BUYING PLANT MILK BECAUSE THEY THINK IT'LL TASTE LIKE COWS MILK IN FACT MOST PEOPLE BUY IT SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE IT DOES NOT HAVE THE SAME QUALITIES AS COWS MILK YOU IDIOT YOU FUCKING IMBECILE YOU ABSOLUT DOOFUS I AM BEGGING YOU TO GO LOOK INTO THIS SHIT JUST ONCE BEFORE YOU SPOUT SOMETHING THIS DUMB. STOP CONTROLLING MY LANGUAGE
I don't know a lot about the english "milk"-word but I do know a bit about its germanic root and at least there "milk" might even first have referred to liquid from plants, and THEN we transferred it to also entail that from animals. Seens like there is a case for that in english, since the usage in the 1200's meant "Milk might even first have referred to liquid from plants, and THEN we transferred it to also entail that from animals."
And we know "soy milk" has been a thing since the 1880's. AHHHHH
INAV and i buy rice milk sometimes for its unique taste and nostalgia (mom used to but it).
Yeah I'm not vegan either but I exclusively buy plant milk because I prefer the taste and texture and I don't feel bloated after drinking.
Same I hardly use milk, but high fat oat milk just foams better.
Oat milk in iced coffee is a banger of a drink
