Vegan drink Oatly can’t call itself ‘milk’, judges rule

www.telegraph.co.uk Vegan drink Oatly can’t call itself ‘milk’, judges rule

The Swedish plant-based company has been in a long-running legal battle with Dairy UK, the trade body for Britain’s dairy industry

I'll probably stick to asking for oat milk instead of "porridge water" or whatever the new mandated name will be. To be honest I do think calling it "milk" lets them inflate the price when it is essentially porridge water.

Feeling a bit insecure are you, dairy industry?
- They see younger generations using less milk and this is their tantrum.
  Meat industry does this too, but aren't as successful most of the time.
  
  They see younger generations moving away from dairy, and claim it's because non-dairy stole the words.
  When in my case at least, it only took a week milk-free to realise that having mild discomfort in your stomach all the time isn't normal.
  And that drinking MOMA instead left me feeling lighter and happier.
  
  I switched to oat milk simply because it lasts longer in the fridge. Cow's milk is not designed for any kind of shelf life at all.
  
  i prefer oat cream because JESUS CHRIST IT'S LIKE HALF THE PRICE
  well, it is in one store, in all the other stores they just jack it up to exactly the same price because fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck yoooooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
