You might be surprised to learn that "milk" and "cheese" have been used to refer to non-dairy products in many cultures and places over thousands of years. In Western Europe, it's tied to meatless Fridays and Lent, so it's a religious freedom issue. And in many other religions worldwide, too.
Sorry you were confused! Poor behavior by your grocery store.
- bigmattystyles 5y agoYea, but aren't those items obviously not milk or cheese?
- wumpus 5y agoAlmond milk? It's kind of like the shitty non-fat milk from powder that I drank as a kid. If I hadn't become lactose intolerant after I turned 50, I wouldn't touch almond milk unless I was making a Renaissance recipe. Given that I wanted to use it for cappuccino, I had some fun learning about the history of almond milk.
